Carousel No. 83, built in 1930, was the last carousel to be
built by the Philadelphia Toboggan Company (PTC). Originally
located on an Atlantic City pier, the elaborately carved
carousel was moved to Idlewild Park in Ligonier, PA, in 1931.
This National Historic Landmark boasts 48 horses and 2
chariots, each one carved of solid wood as well as a carved
crown and antique paintings all located in a carousel building
built by T. M. Harton. Three of the horses display the special
PTC lettering as part of their ornate design.
This gem of a carousel has brought both young and old much
delight over many years and will continue to do so well into the
future.
Our Idlewild Park Carousel Ornament is a great keepsake of
happy times spent at Idlewild Park. Order this ornament for
fans of Idlewild Park and also an ideal gift for carousel
collectors.
