Caption:
The painting above is a watercolor that offers a fun and lively perspective of what the Puyallup fair midway looked like during the mid 70s. Coaster Thrill Ride looms in the center background with a blazin' Blue train making its descent down the first drop. Also pictured is the Monster Mouse with cars buzzing along its tracks, the Rock-O-Plane, Matterhorn, Hurricane, Loop-O-Plane, and Giant Slide.
