Description
The 1970s experienced a surge in high-octane thrill rides, and the Six Flags Company was well poised to capitalize on the trend. The first park, Six Flags Over Texas, was opened in 1961, and additional locations in Georgia and Missouri began operations in 1967 and 1971, respectively. All three followed the same theme as the original – six regions approximating the former governing bodies of the states.
The “flags” of Missouri, USA, Spain, Illinois, and England can be seen on this illustrated bird’s eye view, issued in the second season of Six Flags Mid-America (now Six Flags St. Louis). The souvenir map provides a wonderful overview of the park, labeling rides, amenities, and more. The ‘Mule-Go-Round’ only lasted one more season, and other attractions like Injun Joe’s Cave and the Super Sports Car Ride would be redeveloped before the decade concluded.
