If you're a fan of "Riverview" --- by reputation, or having been there (especially Chicago-area natives), than you may be interested in these TWO Memorabilia Items.
1.) RARE -- New In Wrapper -- DVD (2004) "Riverview: 1904-1967 'Gone But Not Forgotten'". You can see the Original Price Sticker ($34.95) from the Chicago History Museum, on the back.
A complete Two-Hour Film & Slide History (90% in Color), Narrated by Author --- by the Book of the same Title --- Chuck Wlodarczyk.
2.) "Riverview 'Gone But Not Forgotten' 1904-1967" (1977 - First Edition), The Schori Press. A Complete Photo History Book, by Author Chuck Wlodarczyk.
The 117 pg., softcover book (12" x 9.75"), contains numerous B & W Photos of some of the most famous rides (e.g... "Pair-O-Chutes" tower which, with its 225' drop, was added in 1937, and "the Bob's" - the "roughest and fastest" Roller Coaster, at the time) from "The World's Largest Amusement Park".
It opened on July 2, 1904, and until it closed on October 3, 1967, you could "Laugh Your Troubles Away", on its 2.5 mile Midway.
Great memories from an Historic Attraction known throughout the world.
