EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and experience the thrill of Luna Park, Coney Island's premier amusement destination between 1903 and 1906. This photograph showcases the entrance to the park, a stunning example of early 20th century architecture. The symmetrical design of the arched entrance, adorned with intricate detailing and topped with a moon and stars motif, invites visitors to leave their everyday lives behind and enter a world of excitement and wonder. The image is filled with a bustling scene of activity, as men and women in turn-of-the-century attire make their way through the entrance, their expressions hinting at the anticipation and joy that awaits them. A telegraph pole stands tall in the background, a reminder of the communication advancements of the time. This photograph, a dry plate or glass negative, was likely taken by an unknown photographer, possibly Edwin H. Husher or William A. Livingstone, both of whom were active in the Coney Island area during this period. The image is part of the Detroit Publishing Company's collection, which documented the growth and development of American cities and landscapes during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Today, this photograph serves as a valuable piece of heritage art, transporting us back in time to an era of simple pleasures and communal recreation. The entrance to Luna Park stands as a testament to the enduring allure of amusement parks and the indelible mark they leave on our collective memory.
