EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1908 showcases the entrance to Devils Gorge amusement at White City in Chicago. The postcard view captures a moment frozen in time, as visitors eagerly approach the grand archway made of white stone. Flanked by three majestic pillars on each side, the arch exudes an air of mystery and excitement. But what truly steals the show is the large red devil perched atop the arch, spreading its wings and peering mischievously over the entrance. Its presence adds a touch of thrill and anticipation for those about to embark on their exhilarating ride within. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we can almost hear the laughter and screams of joy emanating from ride goers visible in the background. Their expressions reflect a mix of awe, wonderment, and perhaps even a hint of trepidation as they prepare to experience all that Devils Gorge has to offer. This image serves as a reminder of how amusement parks have long been cherished destinations for people seeking entertainment and adventure. It transports us back to an era when White City was one of Chicago's most beloved attractions – a place where dreams came true and memories were made. With its timeless charm and enchanting details, this photograph allows us to relish in both nostalgia for days gone by and appreciation for our enduring fascination with thrilling experiences.
