This tiny kiosk near The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh is another blast to the Fantasyland past. It's one of only two remaining ticket booths in the park.
During the first decade of operation at Walt Disney World, Guests paid one admission price to get into the Magic Kingdom, and then purchased books of tickets good for individual attractions. The tickets were labeled "A" through "E" with the "E" tickets being the most expensive. As you can see from this 1977 guidebook, Fantasyland offered the full range of attraction experiences:

When EPCOT Center opened in 1982, nearly every attraction in the park had a sponsor, so the decision was made to phase out ticket books in favor of the World Passport ticket, allowing admission to the park and all attractions and experiences.
The old ticket booths in the Magic Kingdom were converted to information kiosks and later offered film and other merchandise. At one time, there were seven of these kiosks throughout the park. Today, the only ones which remain are the booth in Fantasyland and this location in Tomorrowland, now the site of a Disney Vacation Club kiosk:
