Nancy at blissedoutgrandma.blogspot.com had a lot to do with preserving it when they were going to sell off the pieces.

M...i love carousels too and this one is a beauty. <br /><br />Many years ago I visited Willowbrook Village in Newfield, ME. They have an old steam run carousel, you will have to add them to your list to visit.<br /><br />http://www.willowbrookmuseum.org/Michèle Hastingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11346907762804197879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-58947314394894219972012-06-17T09:39:24.488-04:002012-06-17T09:39:24.488-04:00Lovely horses.

I used to live there and never stopped. My bad! I love hearing about it, and I agree, the horses (and other animals) are works of art. Are you going to do some in clay?Barbara Rogershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08351113054045427775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-50063778934325361302012-06-17T07:31:06.652-04:002012-06-17T07:31:06.652-04:00Hi Suzi, thanks, oh I'd love to see the photos...Hi Suzi, thanks, oh I'd love to see the photos, and I was just reading there is a carousel in Arkansas that is the only one in the world that rides like a wave, I guess the whole thing waves up and down. These carousel animals are so beautiful, carved and painted by artists, I love them and so much fun for children and adults too I think, fantasy and whimsy and art all rolled into one.Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-85177829028130253372012-06-17T07:26:13.780-04:002012-06-17T07:26:13.780-04:00That's a pretty carousel!

I'll try to get some photos when it's running. I've never seen one quite like it!smartcathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15430370214403895826noreply@blogger.com
