1913 postcard courtesy of Theatre Talks LLC Collection

It appears from the vintage postcard, that it was part of a larger Thompson’s attraction strip on the Boardwalk along Rockaway Beach N.Y. in the early-1900’s.

I have the Theatre Talks LLC link from which the 1913 postcard image originates from. The link has the full history of the Thompson’s Moving Pictures Theatre. But I am unable to copy & paste it to this CT post. I have sent the link to the CT Admins, and hope that they are able to share it here. And replace the brief description I added when I added the theatre. If anyone else can add the link it would be appreciated too. The word Theatre shoulod be added to the name. The word “Broadwalk” also needs to be changed to “Boardwalk”.

Have tried to add this link with the Thompson’s full history and source of the photo, but CT won’t work with Cut & Paste. Maybe someone else can add it.
