Pleasure Island:1959-1969 By Robert McLaughlin, 2014, 96 pages, Images of Modern America series, Arcadia Publishing Inc. The book comes with postcards. 

Pleasure Island was an 80 acre theme park in Wakefield MA form 1959-1969. 
Just by passing through a turnstile, children and the young at heart could leave the present and enter into a world of the past. Clipper Cove was a replica of an old New England fishing village, and Goldpan Gulch re-created the Old West. With state-of-the-art attractions and national and local live entertainment, Pleasure Island became one of the top-grossing parks in the nation. Known as the "Disneyland of the Northeast," the park was enjoyed for 11 seasons, until its closing in 1969.
