A trip down memory lane art print of the road sign to Mountain Amusement Park in Holyoke MA
from an original watercolor painting by the
Artist, William B. MacGregor Jr, who is known in the New England area as the Junkyard Artist.
---------------------------------------------------
Throughout the 1960s,
Mountain
Park
was one of the most popular entertainment spots in the
Pioneer
Valley
. Teenagers flocked to the park to hear the latest rock and roll acts and take a spin on the big rides. Parents relaxed under the trees in the expansive picnic grove. And little tykes frolicked in Kiddieland. Throughout the years, the park was modified and improved, with colorful art deco styling and brightly lit structures designed by legendary roller coaster builder Edward Leis and
Rhode Island
craftsman Dominic Spadola. Together they designed no less than three different walk-thru fun houses and three different dark rides at the park. The Park closed in 1987.
