Wow thank you for this piece of History even the Chimes.
My parents used to take us to Atlantic City boardwalk a lot. That was in the 60’s and 70s
Truly a blessing, love the video, it was very inspirational, and educational, God bless you and thank you,, 🙏🎓
Thank you for the knowledge 💯
I love AC use to live there right after HS for a spell (employed with the boardwalk regency casino later Trumps Taj Mahal) I from the Jersey shore Asbury Park area loved the spirit hanging out inside famed club Harlem on Kentucky Ave thinking of the great jazz musicians etc who passed through there running the boardwalk and sand swimming in the ocean all training before heading west to L A to go to college play football and run track at USC and play drums all over the city and become a Hollywood star well I did a little of that it's nice to know at 63yrs old that Atlantic City still stands ! Thank you for the video I've only heard stories from my relatives about the old AC days will visit when I return home soon I hope!
Im from Southern California attended predominantly white schools and cakewalks were held at our annual halloween carnivals or spring flings. I loved the cake walk game, so cool whtn i won a cake.
