This high-quality fine art photograph documents the energy of the Swiss Bob Ride of the historic Seaside Heights Boardwalk that has been enhanced with its use of bright neon lighting. This photograph was taken in 1978 by architectural historian and renowned photographer, John Margolies, who was known for creating photographs documenting Roadside America at the Library of Congress.

This photo documents an awesome piece of 50’s Americana through its use of primary colors, bright skies, and alpine carnival-like look.
