Coney Island Cyclone Archive Photo – Nitrate Film Series

The Coney Island Cyclone isn’t just a roller coaster,  it’s an icon of New York history. Opened in 1927, this legendary wooden giant has carried generations of thrill-seekers through sharp drops and roaring curves.

This archival black and white print reimagines the Cyclone through the lens of nitrate film and distressed sprocket textures, echoing the gritty romance of 20th-century photography. Each detail preserves the raw energy of Brooklyn’s boardwalk culture and the enduring spirit of amusement that defined an era.

Printed on museum-grade archival paper, this work is designed to last a lifetime, bringing the nostalgia of Coney Island’s golden age into the present with striking depth, character, and authenticity.
