The Carousel on Surf Avenue brings back very fond memories of when I was growing up in Brooklyn. To be taken to Coney Island was a special treat, BUT to go on the Carousell was even more special. To catch the 'gold ring' was a thrill!

This was taken in the late 1940s or early 1950s facing toward Manhattan. It still is a nice walk across the Brooklyn Bridge, which is why so many people have bought it.

The Cyclone at Coney Island is in the background. Taken in 1914.
Carol adds: The roller coaster in this picture could not be the Cyclone, which opened in 1928. Besides, the first hill will tell you it's not the Cyclone: it's not nearly steep enough.

I took this in the late 1940s. The fishing boats in Sheepshead Bay were a favorite place to buy fish. They would come in with their freshly caught fish and many of the fishermen sold their excess at a cheaper price.
