This photograph, taken circa 1920, transports us back in time to the bustling streets of Atlantic City, New Jersey, USA. The scene is filled with the excitement and allure of a bygone era, as people of all ages enjoy the simple pleasure of rolling along the coastal city's avenues in their roller chairs. Roller chairs, a popular mode of transportation for tourists during the 1920s, were a common sight in Atlantic City. These wheeled wonders, a precursor to modern-day wheelchairs, were designed to provide a comfortable and leisurely ride, allowing visitors to take in the sights and sounds of the city without the need for strenuous walking. The roller chairs, with their fringed sunshades and wickerwork frames, exude an air of elegance and sophistication. The men, dressed in navy uniforms and white shirts, add to the scene's historical charm. The shops and stores in the background, with their intriguing displays and inviting signs, beckon tourists to explore the city's many offerings. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of Atlantic City, a coastal city that has long been a popular destination for travelers seeking relaxation, entertainment, and adventure.
