Question
Hi I found this site trying to look up info on my carousel horse.I can't find another example of one that looks like mine . I would be thankful for any info. dimensions are 46in long 23in tall 9in wide horse only on the stand 43in at the head Thanks ED


Answer
Actually, yours is not a carousel horse.  It's an aluminum casting made for decorative purposes only.  If this were authentic, I would have the pole hole and hole directly in front of the saddle.  These are produced at a foundry in Mexico.  You'll find another one just like this at http://www.aluminumcritters.com/Carousel_Horse_Statues.html   It's the second to last photo on the page.   These usually sell for around $200 retail.
