The kiddie rides, freshly painted, at the old amusement park on Edwards Blvd. This was about 1980. I remember these so well as a kid, as I'm sure everyone does.

A great 1910 postcard photo of the Hotel Nassau. Check out all the cars! Must have been folks with money, not many people owned a car in 1910!
Searching for that perfect wave !!

The Lido Hotel, when it was being used as a U.S. Naval receiving station during World War II, 1944.
The Pickwick, early 1900's view. The Hotel Nassau is visible on the left. I'm not sure what became of this structure, there has been a vacant lot where it stood for years, possibly burned. Does anyone know for sure?
A photo of the women's suffrage movement. This taken in front of the Hotel Nassau c1912.

Old postcard of girls feeding the gulls....
.....and here's the gull !!
This is a 1908 photo postcard titled "View from the Balcony of Bathing Pavillion". Most probably taken from near the Hotel Nassau on National Blvd. Roll your mouse ove the photo to see the same area today (12/2000).. notice the bend in the boardward, which locates the area of these photos as taken within about 100 yards of each other.

This seemingly unimportant photo meant more to me than so many others I have come across for one reason.. the water tower.. I needed to see a close up of the old water tower (on the left) to confirm the shape. This allowed me to identify the location of many other photos which showed it vaguely in the background. Before seeing this shot, I was unsure exactly if the shape I was seeing in other photos was indeed this structure. In this photo is pictured the old and new water towers, as well as the old (right) and new (left) incinerators. Sometimes odd things play key rolls in research !!! this photo taken circa 1955
