Robin Stein sent in this great photo of the cotton candy shack on the boardwalk. It was taken in February 1983, prior to it being torn down.
This is Mike A. and his dad, who ran the cotton candy shack at Grubergs Playland on Edwards Blvd. from 1963 through 1972.

This is a corridor at the once posh Nassau Hotel (later the Promenade). The structure still stands today as condos, though severely renovated, on the west side of National Blvd and the boardwalk. Many other photos of this great, old hotel are on this site. It opened June 19, 1909.
