A PTC carousel and my personal favorite carver. This is PTC #50 at a amusement park and looks in great condition. PTC is a great horse carver and I think also has great rounding boards. PTC carousels are commonly found in the states. Like at King’s island, the Palisades mall in NYC and the one at Six Flags Over Georgia and many others.

A lot of Dentzel carousels look similar except for their unique horses. there are 3 jumping kangaroos made by Dentzel in existence. one on a carousel and one in a private collection.

The lead horse is usually the horse most decorated and in front of the chariot.

Alan Herschell and also owner of Spillman made carnival type carousels and in the 50’s started making metal horses. in the 90’s Alan Herchell was bought out by chance morgan rides and now all new carousels by them are made out of cheap fiberglass.
