A souvenir from Marineland of the Pacific on the Palos Verdes Peninsula, this pennant celebrates the once–world-famous oceanarium known for its orcas Orky and Corky and the performing pilot whale Bubbles.


When it opened, it was the world's largest oceanarium and was designed by the notable architect William Pereira. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, it was known as Hanna-Barbera's Marineland.


A landmark attraction that operated from 1954 until it was purchased by the owners of SeaWorld San Diego in December 1986. They moved the main attractions to their San Diego facility.
