Good Lord ! 100 years …. and still going strong beautifully. Loved those scenic paintings on the top side of its cover in the first pic.. the fading,halo like painting technique with softest pastel colours ….
Yeah, the US is home to several really-old structures that compete with the new and manage to remain attractive.
Those paintings are classic. The add to the charm of the antique carousel, don't they?
