EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and take a ride on the thrilling Flip-Flap at the Franco-British Exhibition of 1908! This incredible amusement contraption featured compartments that swung horizontally, holding up to fifty people at a time. The sensation of riding in these swinging cars must have been truly exhilarating for visitors to the exhibition.
The Flip-Flap was a marvel of Edwardian entertainment, providing an unforgettable experience for those brave enough to hop on board. As night fell over Shepherd's Bush in London, the white structure of this exciting ride stood out against the city skyline, beckoning thrill-seekers from near and far.
Imagine being one of those lucky individuals who got to experience the sheer joy and excitement of riding on the Flip-Flap during its heyday in 1908. The laughter, screams, and gasps of delight would have filled the air as riders were whisked away on this gravity-defying adventure.
Thanks to this print from Mary Evans Prints Online, we can catch a glimpse of what it must have been like to partake in this unique form of leisure and entertainment over a century ago. The Flip-Flap may be long gone now, but its memory lives on through images like these that capture a bygone era of amusement park thrills.
