I was travelling through Cisco as a youngster while on vacation with my family in July 1970. This was before I-70 was complete. Just by chance we were driving through Cisco, but got detoured around Cisco because a portion of Vanishing Point (the good one released in 1971) was being filmed there. We stopped for quite awhile and tool several photos. These photos are now considered Vanishing Point Behind the Scenes photos. They are the only photos known to be in existence and have been shared widely across the internet.
There's a long story to go with this but it's too long to post here.
Anyway, whenever we are out west we stop by Cisco to remember and explore. The place has really changed when an outsider brought a bunch of junk cars and other stuff to Cisco and left then there. They are not from the original Cisco as many of us remember it. What a shame.
Another movie filmed in Cisco was Pontiac Moon, with Ted Danson. They used the Cisco Store building as a car repair shop in that movie. Not a lot of people are aware of that.
I hope you enjoyed this information!
