Air holes in the "House of Fun" blow up a smiling white woman's dress as she holds a prize doll in her right arm at Steeplechase Park, Coney Island, New York. A white man in a suit and hat looks down and laughs as he holds her left elbow. A white little person dressed as a clown grins up at her as he lays his left hand on her left forearm.
