EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the entrance to the White City amusement park in Cleveland, Ohio, between 1900 and 1906. The image, captured by an unknown photographer, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time over a century ago. The White City, a creation of the Detroit Publishing Company, was a major attraction during the World's Fair held in Chicago in 1893. After the fair, the company dismantled the structures and rebuilt the park in Cleveland. This photograph captures the grandeur of the entrance, adorned with intricate glasswork and ornate detailing. The large, arched gateway invites visitors to step into a world of entertainment and recreation. A crowd of men and women, dressed in the fashion of the era, can be seen in the background, making their way through the entrance. Some are walking, while others are waiting for the tramline to transport them deeper into the park. The road leading up to the entrance is lined with trees, adding to the picturesque scene. The photograph was taken using a dry plate or glass negative process, which was a common method for photographing landscapes during the early 1900s. The image has been preserved in the Library of Congress, a testament to the rich heritage and history of America's amusement parks and the people who enjoyed them. This photograph is a fascinating window into the past, offering a glimpse into the entertainment and recreational opportunities available to Americans during the early 1900s. It serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of amusement parks and the joy they bring to people of all ages.
