That guy training the lion right at the end...I'm pretty sure that's my great uncle! I never got to meet him and I've been scouring Benson home videos for footage of him. Thanks for posting!!
I went there a couple times back in the 80s. Thanks for the memories. I also went when it became Playworld or Playland and changed the sign to have Mighty Mouse on it.
I went there for the first time about '65-'66, about the age of the girl in the video.Haunting but sweet.Thank you.

I remember going to Benson's back in the 60's when I was a kid
I used to go there when I was a kid
Benson's opened in 1924 and closed in 1987.
