The second image shows the same group visiting a petting zoo at the Pike. Check out the airplane ride in the background.

Square Dancing at the Long Beach Pike 1949
Two more images from the Long Beach Pike in 1949. These images focus on a kid's square dancing group who visited the park. First up is a nice shot of the group dancing in front of the Mother Goose Garden. The kids are wearing their best western outfits, the boys dressed up as cowboys. I wonder what happened to the wonderful sign. Note that in the background is a miniature train ride.

These are AWESOME images!! I remember square-dancing when I was a kid. We used to dress up and do the whole thing in school. Do-si-do, you name it.
Thanks, Matterhorn!
I love the photos, though the two square dancers look like their feet are glued to the ground. Come on kids, move around!
