Description
What a wonderful experience to ride on one of a kind hand carved carousel horses. If you’re really lucky you will visit one that offers an opportunity to grab for the brass ring.
At one time over 7000 carousels were in existence. As of 2011 there are approx. 300 left. What’s the difference between a carousel & a merry-go-round? A carousel turns counter clockwise and a merry-go-round turns clockwise As a young girl I was lucky I lived across the street from Charles Looffs Showroom Carousel. This is one of his carved horses from that carousel. He would bring customers there to select which horses they wanted for their park.
