- This silent film, likely from the 1940s (possibly late 1930s) shows viewers the highlights of Atlantic City. The film opens with an aerial shot of Atlantic City with its famous beach and board walk. Viewers see people enjoying the sun and sand on the beach. People line the street for the Miss America Pageant parade (01:05). Women pose on the Miss Atlantic City float. Various people march, including people in Native American dress and Atlantic City Mummers. Viewers see an AFL float. The contestants pose for a photographer. Beachgoers sunbathe on the beach with the pier and Ferris wheel in the background (02:20). Three women show off their bathing suits. Men push visitors in carts down the boardwalk. A shot from a moving car shows some of the large houses in Atlantic City (02:57). Men play golf, people sail small boats, and crowds gather to watch the parade of horses before the horserace. At the racetrack, the horses take off, running around the rack (03:58). A boat named Julia C leaves a dock (04:22). Tourists ride out in observation boats to get a view of Atlantic City from the water. People mill around the entrance to the Steel Pier (04:58). Children ride on a carousel; other people ride the Ferris Wheel and another ride. A girl enjoys cotton candy. Several people head out on a charter boat for deep sea fishing. The woman’s line catches and she reels in a fish (05:56). On shore, men cast lures out into the waves and reel in the lines. Children swim in a swimming pool. There are shots of the neon signs of Atlantic City’s various businesses. Viewers see a variety show performance on ice (07:30). Beachgoers beat the heat with shaded bungalows. The film concludes with a group of young men and women running down the beach to the surf.

Oh don’t mind me, just rekindling fine memory’s of the early seasons of Boardwalk Empire
I was born in the Atlantic City Medical Center. Moved away when I went to college. I miss it so much.

how old are you ?
At 4:43 the big building on the left can still be seen in Atlantic City today. The Claridge Hotel
Not the 30's. The racetrack opened in 1946.
Yep... this same footage is seen colorized in a TH-cam video titled "1940s Atlantic City".
Thanks for presenting yet another compelling video!
Casinos ruined AC. It’s more like a dumping ground now. It could be easily rehabilitated and gentrified
The Ice Capades at Convention, now Whelan Boardwalk, Hall. Home to the largest pipe organ in the world.
The neighborhood at 2:54 I believe is now known as Margate City
Not a silent film after all! YAY!
Wow, from a great seaside resort town with beautiful homes in manicured neighborhoods to a utter slum. Those houses are long gone in favor of section 8 housing they started building in the early 70's. The old hotels are long demolished in favor of high rise casino's. The only seaside hotel left is the old Claridge Hotel now owned by Raddison. With gambling legal in PA Atlantic City has lost a ton of business from the Philadelphia crowd.
The future of this country. Gone.
Nearby gulf stream assures moderate fall, winter and spring temperatures??? My wife's cousin moved to Florida because they hated winters in N.J.
Before Myrtle Beach!
Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty
And meet me tonight in Atlantic City
I want to see Nucky Johnson
AC was glamourous back when now its just a dump. when I went to vegas it makes AC look like camden
@Jim Bennett. If you're accurate with the years, can't fool everybody.
The shown Miss America contestants now would be centenarians.
I went there many times in the early 2000's. Today, it's awful.
Doesn't look like this anymore, lol. Gulf Stream is Not close to the beach ? Everything knocked down and just casinos now.
MegaBait total shit hole now
@@RodeoRides Casinos? Not any more! Creeping blight saw to that.
It wasn't so different in the 1950 s
Wheres all the black folk in these videos? Is this spot still nice and clean and safe?
Take a look today. you'll be saying where all the white folk. Place is a disgrace now. It's being called Atlantic Shitty now.
Call me racist if you must, but when Newark, Camden, and Atlantic City were white they were booming thriving cities. Now? Well...
The United States could be a paradise on earth..........
Mob central
just a slum in the 1980s
