(July 17, 1955–Sept. 1966) BACKSTORY: As you entered Tomorrowland, you were originally greeted by the Clock of the World. The hours turned, and you could line it up with your part of the world. The little ball had the minutes on it and rotated. Apparently the reliability of this clock was not something to set your watch on. Not much information available about this, so if you’d like to contribute, feel free to email me!

CoxPilot Remembers at Daveland
Clock of the World: Some of the things I remember about Tomorrowland involve sounds and smells. In fact, they were the strongest memories. The ropes on the flag poles down by the world clock would always be clanging, and it had an effect like a giant wind chime. You probably remember the sound from school days. Just multiply that by 49.
