Explore the naive art of late 19th and early 20th century shooting
gallery targets, whole galleries, and arcade forms. Commonly seen
on early midways and carnivals, as well as in saloons and other
public places of amusement, here, in a presentation of compelling
color photographs, are the rarest and most aesthetically pleasing
decorative targets and arcade forms known. The progression from the
world of shooting gallery and arcade forms, as well as painted
American fixtures and accessories, to contemporary art and
sculpture has been a natural evolution. Also featured are examples
of other amusement attractions to which the visitor to the
carnival, circus, or midway would have been exposed. A few European
forms are included to illustrate the difference between them and
American forms.
