Here's a chance to travel back about 85 years in to the history of Margate City, New Jersey. 

A video posted to YouTube by Margate local Patrick Armstrong shows the town's beach front in its Roaring 20's finest.

You'll see Margate's coastline, the fishing pier and the town's long-since destroyed boardwalk 15 years before it was washed away by the Great Hurricane of 1944.  Look closely and you will even see Margate's favorite pachyderm, Lucy the Elephant.

The footage is grainy, but remarkable for its age!
