Plaid Stallions More Superheroes at Sea World

I got a nice email from Tony who works for the Florida memory department about the website he works on called Florida Memory which catalogs photos from the state of Florida. I have a lot of fond childhood memories of visiting Florida so I've accrued a few hours surfing through this incredible site. Here are a couple of low res samples but I encourage you to visit the site and explore for yourself. The Terrific Trio, I admit it, I have a Batgirl fetish.
This billboard gives me chills, although it does seem to have some scale issues.
Aquaman is tall!

Thanks Tony and for more awesome images like these, visit FloridaMemories.com

Love that Terrific Trio pic and that billboard is just plain awesome, wonder if it still exists.
The only thing that "bothers" me is that Supergirl has shoulder length curly hair.
But all those costumes are really cool, did anyone keep these or are they lost forever?

Wow, these are the best pics yet! That Aquaman does look suspiciously like a very tall Canadian we all know...

It seems the backdrop is trying to show dimension with Robin and WW in the distance behind the Filmation trinity. Looks like the JLA satellite!

Oh and I have a Batgirl fetish too. Thanks Yvonne!

Just had a thought; Supergirl looks like Madeline Kahn stopped by during a break from filming Blazing Saddles!!!

Thanks so much for posting this! Brought back wonderful memories of seeing DC's Finest as a kid (1976-77?) at SeaWorld in Aurora, Ohio.

I remember how exciting it was to see Aquaman ski barefoot, and the Penguin was a featured villian.

This Florida show must be more recent, though--WW has her newer bodice emblem, circa 1981?

Love the costumes, too-like what member Brue does, very Alex Ross.
