It was in 25 feet of water; makes you kinda think nobody cared about this bell and I think they were right.

Did those people packed cheek by jowl think they were having fun?

I would have loved to have gone there in 1910. I notice in your 1940 photo that the crowd does not seem very ethnically diverse.

My Grandpa would take me to Coney Island. He did not drive we would take busse’s and train’s from Yonkers into Brooklyn. I remember the fat lady laughing on the Boardwalk.

When I think of Coney Island, I think of Nathan's Famous and Brighton Beach/ "Little Odessa" .
Nelson Rockefeller, Governor of New York:“No man can hope to be elected in his state without being photographed eating a hot dog at Nathan’s Famous.
