Chutes (Playland) at the Beach artifact









ftd

Before it became Playland at the Beach, it was known as Chutes At The Beach as early as 1913. You can read some of the history here, Chutes at the Beach. I purchased this old blotter, from Chutes at the Beach, at a local flea market.

You can read the Chronicle article about the Playland at the Beach exhibit at the Conservatory of Flowers here, and see some historic photos from Peter Hartlaub’s blog post here.
