(Disneyland, 1955) An insurance engineering report for fire safety at Disneyland. Prepared by the firm Marsh & McLennan in August of 1955, the report includes details regarding fire safety operations as well as recommendations to be completed. Of particular note is an included fold-out map of the park with markings that correspond to the safety report. Reports such as this were instrumental in the development and safety of Disneyland during its opening year. The corresponding map of Disneyland is believed to have been created specifically for this report, and is unlike any other map of the park we have encountered. Measuring 11.5"x9.25", the 11-page report is in very good condition with expected edge-wear from age and use, as well as some surface wear to the binder. The map measures 36.5"x54.5" when unfolded, with a 1" overhang at the lower left for inclusion in the report. There are some spots of tearing to the map, particularly where it attaches within the binder.
