This set of images is from a larger series photographed in Atlanta in 1973. The Great Southeastern Fair used to appear every year at the Lakewood Fairgrounds, before it was bulldozed. Lakewood had a huge wooden roller coaster that was famous. When I lived in Atlanta, my photography was limited mostly to Sunday mornings. The fair grounds were empty and the custodians were sweeping up paper cups and ticket stubs. Side show attendants and ride barkers were sleeping in the cabs of their trucks. The skeleton of the carnival stands silent.
