FANTASYLAND: Captain’s Hook’s Pirate Ship by BudCat14/Ross on Flickr.

Via Flickr:
From a GAF color slide. GAF was the “Official Film of Disneyland” at the time.
Mr. Hook’s ship became a Chicken of the Sea restaurant when it first sailed into the Magic Kingdom, a bit of a come down from Neverland.

A somewhat rare view of the back of the ship.

From the YESTERLAND site: “The Chicken of the Sea Pirate Ship and Restaurant was a Disneyland landmark from 1955 until 1982, although the name changed to Captain Hook’s Galley when Chicken of the Sea dropped their sponsorship in 1969.”
