My family used to go to a funhouse in San Francisco in the 1960's. I was just looking for information and pictures about it somewhere on the web

Here are a few photos from Playland at the Beach. The Funhouse was one of the main attraction at Playland, but sadly, there are not enough interior photographs to satisfy my tastes. Have fun.
