Mary with her brother and grandmother at a roadside animal park in Florida, c. 1958.

Submitted to the Vintage Photos Theme Park for the theme, "roadside attractions." Mary told me that this establishment was selling small rhesus monkeys for $50 each. She had brought her life savings with her on this trip, a bit more than the cost of a monkey, and begged her grandparents to let her take one home. They declined her wish.
