First, I can confirm that although I don't recall the amusement park, from the surrounding areas shown in that group of pictures, that was almost certainly in Sunland Park, along the Foothill Blvd. side.

Second, I remember that Sunland sign just barely, although I would say it was gone most likely by 1966 or 1967, and definitely by 1970.

One last observation: there used to be a tiny stone house not very far west from where the color picture was taken that in 1979 served as a rehearsal hall for a band I was in. So this little stretch of Foothill is full of memories for me.

I hope this helps give some context for these pictures.

Yes, Otis C., your memories give meaning to these mute pictures - thanks for sharing them!
