For much of the 20th century the Steel Pier in Atlantic City, NJ, was the center of American entertainment on the East Coast. There were big bands, movies, sideshows, acrobats, flag-pole sitters, Frank Sinatra, Miss America ¿ and throngs of people lining up to get a seat so they could watch brave horses and riders dive into a pool of water. It was aptly called the ¿Showplace of the Nation¿ and it was all that and more. This all-in-one entertainment mecca has never been matched. Where else could you take the entire family for a day and see fortune-telling parakeets, the World of Tomorrow, John Philip Sousa and his band, a bear on a bicycle, World Famous Diving Horses, take a ride below the sea in the Diving Bell, spend the evening in the marine ballroom, and take in a movie ¿ all for one ticket? It was a colossal offering of escape, popular culture, fun and fantasy. Today the golden age of the Pier seems a world apart. Yet it was an institution ¿ a destination not to be missed ¿ an empire of grand-thinking impresarios, oddities and glamour that meshed into one attainable summer destination. Steel Pier evokes a time when more really was more, a time when there was so much invention, talent and industry that it could only be experienced in one place ¿at the edge of the continent, in a city that took its name from a vast ocean, on a great pier reaching out into the sea.

Steel Pier details the history of this historic "Showplace of the Nation" in "America's Playground"--Atlantic City. Atlantic City has worn the tag of "America's Playground" since its earliest days, so it is only natural that its biggest and most well-known icon, the Steel Pier, would be known as the "Showplace of the Nation." Over the course of 80 years, from 1898 to 1978, Steel Pier developed from a quiet, genteel amusement that featured light classical music and cakewalks to a vast entertainment complex that offered movies, big-name vaudeville acts, exhibits, big bands, rock bands, and the Water Circus with its famed diving horse. What makes this even more compelling is that one could spend the entire day on the pier and take all of this in for one small admission fee.

Atlantic City was founded in 1854 and soon became a seaside resort surpassing all others, earning the nickname "Queen of Resorts." Chronicling the glory of the city from 1900 to 1930, these vintage postcards depict a time when visitors were eager to stroll on a local invention, the boardwalk; frolic on the beach; ride a rolling chair; and buy saltwater taffy. The annual Easter parade and Miss America Pageant became Atlantic City traditions. Amusement piers offered vaudeville, band concerts, thrill rides, diving horses, fishnet hauls, and more. Visitors stayed in grand hotels, among the largest and finest in the world. Through more than 200 postcard images, the amazing spirit of this historic resort town is revealed.
