Circa 1906 Philadelphia Toboggan Company carousel goat from PTC carousel

striding figure has a gentle, pensive expression in a delicately carved
tucked head carried on a beautifully arched neck. Billy has exceptional
fur detail and realistically carved horns. A fancy fringed and bordered
blanket wraps the body and supports a characteristic PTC deeply scooped
saddle with foliage and flowers emerging from under the cantle while a fringed
and bordered breastband encompasses the chest. Display stand and brass pole
included. 54 long x 61 high. |
