Description

Frolics, Salisbury, MA. 1950sIn gorgeous vintage colors, this menu has wonderful graphics and we love the girl in her swimming costume and dainty shoes, reflected in a champagne glass. Frolics was the largest nightspot on the New England Coast in the 1950s and boasted a seating capacity of 1250. Located in The Center in Salisbury Beach for more than 40 years, it was set amid the Kodachrome palette of penny arcades, skeeball, fried clam shacks and a rollercoaster. Frolics
