Asbury Park 1940s: Wesley Lake & Casino



A recent eBay find: An 1940s image of the Asbury Park Casino and power plant tower in the far distance.  Wesley Lake is in the foreground and the side of the long-gone Mayfair Theatre is visible in the middle distance.  Squint after clicking the image and you will see the ferris wheel of Palace Amusements just over the Mayfair's shoulder.  I've never walked the entire length of Wesley Lake back toward the inland side but perhaps I should sometime so I can take some comparison shots.

Button Jar Dartboard










Personal item:  A 2006 decorative assemblage I made for home. 
Found dartboard affixed with buttons from one of my grandmother's button jars as well as window glass and copper-covered moulding pieces from the Asbury Park Casino.
More personal than conceptual, but fun to look at.
