The picture shows a view of both sides of this Old Paragon Park Nantasket Beach Massachusetts Advertising Souvenir Vinyl Change Purse. The coin purse is not dated but it is believed to be from the 1960s or 1970s. There is a metal zipper and it is imprinted in color. One side pictures a roller coaster and what appears to be a miniature golf course. The other side has children on carousel or merry-go-round horses. It is marked on both sides as follows:

PARAGON PARK
NANTASKET BEACH, MASS.

The coin purse measures about 3-1/4'' x 2-1/4'' x 5/8''. It is in excellent condition with a 1/2'' tear in the vinyl by the end of the zipper. Below here is some historical background reference information:

Paragon Park
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Paragon Park circa 1914
Paragon Park was an amusement park located on Nantasket Beach in Hull, Massachusetts. It closed in 1984.

Rides
Among the amusement rides in operation during Paragon Park's history was a traditional style carousel with hand-crafted horses, a bumper cars ride known as ''The Scooters'', a Ferris wheel, a horror themed dark ride called ''Kooky Kastle'', and a giant rollercoaster known as ''The Comet''. There was also a ski lift type ride called the ''Sky Ride'', an automobile themed ride known as ''Turnpike Cars'' (later improved and re-named ''Indy 500''), and a water ride called ''Bermuda Triangle'' (later revamped as ''Congo Cruise'').

Today
Today, the only surviving remnants of Paragon Park on the boardwalk are the historic carousel and clock tower. The rest of the site is devoted to condominium development.
