It's a lone tattered stand shot!

Awww this reminds me of your lone chair shots Motts. I guess this would be it's counterpart.

I'm in tatters
does it matter?

Shadooby

Looks VERY 50's, wouldn't you agree? Doowap, baby!

The window looks like an eye...............................
I agree with Jude. Looks like it'd sell soda pop.

Thanks Ron. I was beginning to think it was just .......me.

Soda, or cotton candy. Hello Jude and Ron!

(((((((Twug)))))
you're welcome

1960s
curtsy to your elders

Main gate ticket booths 1 and 2. Building in background is the "Shore Dinner Hall".

PEB,
You went here? What was the "Shore Dinner Hall"....A chowder house. Or a hot dog and hamburger place? Do tell :-)

The Shore Dinner Hall was an all you can eat place .....chowder ,clamcakes,corn on the cob,watermellon and....i'm not sure what else ...fish&chips?

idon't think the building in the background is the Shore Dinner Hall. I think it is the Rocky Point
Palladium. (Banquet hall)

Or it could be the Windjammer.... not sure.Anyone know?

There is a guy at my dad's work named John P. He has a handle bar moostashe. I remember going to his work and thinking he was in the circus, and being dissapointed when i found out he wasent in the circus. ='(

I concur with PEB. The building in the background is the Shore Dinner Hall. It served Clamcakes in the summer and operated as a flea market in the winters. There are probably still spare roller coaster cars from the Cyclone in the basement.

For those who commented on the it possibly being Windjammer/Palladium I would point out that you would not have been able to see the ocean on the right if you were facing the Windjammer/Palladium (ocean would have been behind you). From this perspective the Cliff House/Park Offices would be behind you. Incidently the Cliff House was reputed to be haunted. Several of the employees hated going into the old club section of the Cliff House which was no longer used as a club but was used as storage and was very poorly lit.

Mr. Black,
Thanks for the details!
...the ability for rememberance and to share it...well... it is much appreciated :-)

again, thanks for the comments....
this shot is superb....

The building in the background is indeed the Rocky Point Shore Dinner Hall. BEST CLAM CAKES in the world! On the lower level on the street side they had walk up window for to-go orders. They did also serve Hot Dogs, Burgers and Fries.

God... I miss that place, BEST CLAM CAKES in the world... What a shame, the last owners of Rocky Point should be locked away in one of these abandoned asylums on this site...

Tervetuloa!!!

omg...the clamcakes!!!

I love this one...so lonely but colorful and fun

if anyone has any other cool pics from rocky ponit ..i mean ANY even when it was tsill open..can u send it to me @ amanda@wallace1.com..thanx id appreciate it

That doesn't even resemble that anymore :(

It was a ticket booth near the Shore Dinner Hall, the Cliff House would be to your left rear. My brother Mike worked on the Cliff House as the manager.

its an out-house!

awww that looks so cute and lonely.... dont worry i'll sit next to you for a while =] ok ima shuddup now!

i miss rocky point

The menu at the shore dinner hall was
clam cakes and chowder
1/4 baked chicken or baked scrod
steamers
lobster
watermelon

they also use to put out a plate with onion slices and olives.

That was my very first job! 1979, washing dishes at the shore dinner hall. I remember my first paycheck...$83.00 wow! I use to hitchhike from buttonwoods everyday in the summer until I was old enough to drive. how times have changed !

Another Mulder sighting

hey did you mean MURDER that's how you spell murder.

They were almost the best clam cakes in the world. The best are/were made at Flo's in Portsmouth. Anybody remember Jolly Charley's (sp?) hamburger stand in East Greeewich near Goddard Park?

This looks like where dead clowns would go to pee!!
