This is an excerpt from "Gwynn Oak Park Final Days" on DVD. In the 1940s and 50s, filmmaker Bill Spicer lived on Rogers Avenue in West Baltimore, just blocks away from the classic amusement park. Setting adjacent to the Gwynn Falls stream, the park met its demise in June 1972 during Hurricane Agnes. Bill covered the story for WJZTV while working as an Eyewitness News cameraman. He then nostalgically revisited the abandoned park in 1974 to film what remained. It was leveled shortly thereafter.
Years later Bill combined the footage he shot with his old home movies. The result is a 7minute short film on DVD that features haunting flashbacks from Gwynn Oak's happier times in the 1960s to its final days in 1974. It evokes memories and makes a great gift for a family member or friend!
