The viewing image is displayed on a large circular screen. The film's rendition of the title song would later be used in Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln. The Disney 360 film processes were created and refined by Ub Iwerks and son Don Iwerks and in the 1950s and 1960s. In September 1959, Disneyland Records (now Walt Disney Records) released a vinyl LP album called "America the Beautiful" to tie in with the Russian dub and subsequent Disneyland Park premiere of the Circarama film. Branded as a "Music Mural," the gatefold cover contained a book illustrated with photos. The recordings was not a soundtrack of the attraction but instead a collection of twelve American folk and popular songs performed by Disney studio artists. (en)
