The Frantics: "Gayway Twist"

Patrick picked this postcard record up for me when he went to Seattle. Regrettably, neither of us went to the 1962 Seattle World's Fair. The "Gayway" of the title, by the way, was an amusement park that was a part of the 1962 Fair. I did not just know that. I had to use the internet to look it up.

So, yeah, you should download this and for almost two and a half minutes, you can pretend it is 47 years ago and relive the glory of the Gayway. The Gayway was renamed "The Fun Forest" after the Fair. I'm glad they waited because somehow "The Fun Forest Twist" sounds even dirtier.

Click here to start Gayway Twistin'! Front and back scans of the postcard are included for nerds like me.

Greetings from Cherry Hill, S.C.

I'm pretty sure I bought this postcard at the Gay Dolphin.

Budget Host

I don't know where this hotel is, or where I got this postcard. I am going to assume that Devlin gave it to me. Look at that banquet hall!

Susie

I can only imagine how great it would be to get this postcard in the mail. I had to pay money for it...

Golf of Mexico

Postcard with photos of the "Golf of Mexico" indoor miniature golf course at South of the Border. Sadly, the building in which this golf course was located is now a store that sells concrete yard art, though all the miniature golf holes are still there. They just have hundreds of concrete statues all over them.

Confederate Dough

Fluorescent colors do not work well with the scanner. This postcard / decal is much brighter than it appears to be.
