Low-budget documentary on Chicago's legendary Riverview Amusement Park, originally released for home video distribution in 1991. This is the 1992 re-release commemorating the 25th anniversary of the park's closure in 1967.

Contains a beautiful collection of color home video - including on-ride footage from several of the park's roller coasters - filmed by the late Clarence Hintze & George Berbert. This film is a work of the duo, and narrated by the latter.

Transferred from the VHS copy my grandparents received as a gift back in the day. There is an official, 2005 DVD release of this doc, but I'm not sure where or how to obtain it.

Produced by: Tim Young
Released through: Kelleher, Russell & Young, Inc.
