The Merry-Go-Round Museum

Introduction

The Merry-Go-Round Museum display artifacts that add to the public's awareness, knowledge, and appreciation of the history of the carousel. Dentzel carving shop tools are a permanent exhibit, along with a working woodcarving shop, and the museum's own machine, (circa 1939 Allan Herschell Corporation). The museum continues to seek artifacts from amuseument parks, carnivals, and private individuals, and encourages long and short-term loans of memorabilia and antiques from earlier periods of the amuseument and carousel industry.
