Tales of the New Jersey Shore
How about this boardwalk entrance to George Tilyou's Steeplechase Pier in Atlantic City.
Looks like fun.
Anita Collins Anyone recall the Yankee Clipper and Sand Bar Pub in Sea Girt? We moved from Jersey about 15 years ago and I still miss the shore. I truely "grew up" in Jersey and will always love it with all my heart!!
Tales of the New Jersey Shore
All fans of the Jersey Shore and especially Atlantic City are fortunate that in the early 20th century the Maxwell Sign Company took high quality, large format, black and white images of their signs along the Asbury and AC boardwalks.
While their goal was their signs they captured amazing images of life on the boardwalk back in the day.

Another page from the gem of a booklet I just found on Cape May - ( circa 1910 )
Think we should bring back "Hydrangea Day."
Many visitors do not realize that Cape May is on the mainland so the foliage is more representative of a country town and less of a barrier sand resort like resort's further north.
BTW...before a c...entury of hurricanes took their toll the town was known for streets with trees that dwarf the current ones. Would love to have seen them in person.Read More

Frances Lynn Sally Galbraith Cape May is my home in the summer, but I have fond memories of Wildwood, Ship Bottom and Atlantic City from my childhood. Cape May is akin to Key West and is "south " of the Mason-Dixon line, so now I'm an honorary Southerner...

Laura Lynn Griffin I worked many summers selling badges to "the bennies" on the Mmanasquan beach! What a way to spend a summer - sunning by day and partying by night with the lifeguards! I miss most the pork roll sandwiches at the Inlet and riding my bicycle everywhere! One summer I worked at Evelyn's Seafood Rstaurant and got to serve Meryl Streep!

On the Asbury Park Boardwalk there was Taylor Pork Roll(tasty). I only had it once when my boyfriend wanted me to try it. So many other things come to mind, ice cream mmmm and salt water taffy on the stretching machine. Did any one go through the spooky house or the tunnel of love? I loved standing over the ocean o...utside Convention Hall. Bruce gets ready for his tours there and I saw Janis Joplin on that stage. When i was in grammar school it was a skating rink. So much fun!Read More

Donna Murray I love it here! Cape May has my favorite beaches and the cobblestone walk is just awesome!! Little cafes, window shopping, so beautiful! Have taken my kids there from when they were infants, camping in Cape May is great also! Wish I was there right now!
Deb Wright Stone Cape May was/is voted one of the best small towns in America on the MSN homepage last week. I do miss the Jersey Shore.....
