E-ticket: the ticket needed for the "good" rides at Disneyland. Back before there were all-over-park passes, you'd get a ticket book with tickets A-E, different rides needed different level tickets. Space Mountain was an E ticket. Seems the Mad Hatter's Tea Cups was an A-Ticket. So big kids would grumble about being stuck with tickets for "baby rides", and not enough tickets for the good rides. Seems you could buy more E-tickets once in the park. At the entry gate, you could buy ticket booklets according to your budget and family age group. I suppose this was when Disneyland had most of their visitors coming from the immediate area. When I was a University student (late 1970's), they were phasing out the ticket books and phasing in the all-over park pass.
