General admission was $1.
When comparing to today's ticket prices, you do need to keep in mind that what you got for your dollar was "through the front gate". If you wanted to actually ride or do anything (except for the few "sponsored" attractions like the Kaiser Hall of Aluminum Fame) then you had to have a separate ticket for that, and if you wanted to do it again it would take another ticket. Factoring in general admission and adjusting for inflation, a day at Disneyland in 1955 doing each of the ticketed attractions once would have cost the equivalent of around $30 in 2016 dollars, and none of the big fancy "E-ticket" rides even existed yet; the C-ticket Jungle Cruise was pretty much the top of the line at the time.
