Postcards, photographs, matchbook covers, buttons, advertisements, real estate brochures -- and much more. The author has been collecting anything and everything pertaining to Rockaway Beach, New York, for the past seventy years -- and that’s what this volume is all about. Here is a plethora of souvenirs and memorabilia amassed over one individual’s lifetime. This is the largest and most complete historical journal ever published by this author. 'Rockaway Beach, New York in Souvenirs and Memorabilia' includes representations of artifacts dating back before the turn of the 20th Century -- but also features additional materials relating to the last 120 years. Recent events such as the creation of high-rise apartments replacing a defunct shopping center in the hub of Far Rockaway and the loss of the Park Theatre building in Rockaway Park -- are captured here in photo detail. As inclusive as possible, this is a fun book -- actually a historical journal which is of interest and value -- a tome to be enjoyed over and over again by anyone who ever had any relationship to Rockaway Beach.
