- Summary:
- This most evocative of Mitchell & Kenyon's fairground films shows an array of wonderful rides - the Racing Bantams carousel, boat swings, switchback gondolas - and the delighted faces of the holiday crowd. Better still, it shows the fantastic frontage of Green's Cinematograph show where this very film would have been shown. The intriguing machine in the foreground is a coin-operated phonograph.
