Arrow's Moon antique car ride at Six Flags St. Louis
Many of the regional parks’ original attractions were named, usually due to sponsorship, after local companies. Six Flags over Mid-America, as it was called at the time, featured a typical auto ride where enthusiastic drivers, young and old alike, could take the wheel and cruise through the countryside. Arrow Development was the primary manufacturer for these attractions, and the installation at Six Flags, The Moon Antique Car ride, represented the Moon Motor Car Company that was based in St. Louis from 1905—1930. Walt Disney owned a second-hand Moon early in his Hyperion studio days. I ran across one of these cars recently; here are a couple photos.
