Ohio Amusement Parks in Vintage Postcards (PCH). Ohio played a central role in the development of the American amusement park industry. Only New York and Pennsylvania have had more amusement parks. This book, through rare postcards made available for the first time to the general public, will detail the evolution of this late-19th & early-20th century phenomenon. Chapters will include The Early Years (1895?1904); The Age of Rapid Expansion (1905?1908); The Age of Popularity (1919?1930); Depression and War (1931?1945); and The End of an Era (1946?1969). This book will appeal both to postcard and to amusement park enthusiasts.
