Onlookers at a fairground roller coaster, 1937

In the crowd of a fair, an elderly woman in a crocheted cap and a fur-trimmed coat stands beside a thin man in a flat cap and dark suit who is eating something from his hand; both gaze at the rides. Then a car full of passengers rushes along the curves of a timber roller coaster lit with strings of lamps, a board on its frame calling out Hiiinein!, in you go. The party's leisure organisation, Strength through Joy, liked to count such simple pleasures among the achievements of the new Germany.
