What we are focusing on in this wonderful scene,  perhaps from the 1920’s or 1930’s,  are those vehicles parked on Ocean Ave., that yellow push cart with some riders enjoying the salt air, and some folks sitting on not so wide wooden benches. We see a lady with an orange dress and gold colored heels, lamp posts on the boards and in the those grass strips,  and the North End Hotel in the distance.  And there is that white building where the current Pavilion sits. It says “Auditorium” See postcard below for more details on that structure.

A post card reflecting the time. Imagine that  someone in 2114 is counting on us to take a picture or two of our times on and off the boards. So let’s have a great big smile for them to see!
