Paul McGehee "Glen Echo Amusement Park" Card

A wonderfully nostalgic note card by the award-winning artist Paul McGehee. "Glen Echo Amusement Park" shows the beloved Maryland amusement park as it appeared in the Summer of 1954. Glen Echo Park is in a beautiful woodland setting just outside of Washington, D.C., not far from the banks of the Potomac River. This vintage view from the picnic grounds in front of the "Spanish Ballroom" shows the historic Dentzel carousel, the legendary roller coaster "Coaster Dips," the Popcorn Building, the aeroplane ride "Flying Skooter," the original stone Chautauqua tower and much, much more. Place yourself in this scene amongst the cheerful crowds of over half a century ago...a warm, sunny Summer's day, an ice cream cone in your hand, and a ticket to ride "Coaster Dips" in your pocket! Each card comes with envelope.
