Subject: Wooden Rocking Horse

Question
I am wondering what (if anything) this rocking horse is worth. I have included links to pictures, but I can also email them to you. I'm 5'8 tall and it stands nearly to my waist. A few of the wooden bolt covers are missing but all bolts are there and it is structural perfectly sound. Thanks!

Answer
I don't know very much about these, but based on the fact that this is really just a few scroll-saw cut pieces of wood put together, I would doubt that it has much value at all.  It would have no artistic value since it wouldn't really be considered a carved piece.
