I bet Gunny probably took his girls to either of the carrousels. We will have to wait and see.

He's the best I got in that area----Sitarro takes photos in that area too--maybe he has one.

ooops it may be gone

I found that also but it sounds like another carrousel and they have not sold it. My mom also likes to keep Carrousels together instead of being broke up. She actually helped save a carrousel in NYC and talked to an assistant of Bloomberg. She gets contacted by all sorts of people.
but thanks and if you hear anything let me know!

There were two ---one at playland park and one at breckenridge within a few miles of each other---I may have to put my man, Gunny on this one.

Playland Park is closed. Breckenridge Park is still open. Two different carousels. The Playland Park carousel was auctioned off in pieces in 1988. It was a 1917 C.W. Parker carousel.

They can tell you about the carousel more than I can. I live here. That means I haven't been there since the 80s.

thanks! That is the one at Kiddie Park which my mom also did not know about, they have another one in San Antonio she thinks at another park.

My daughters have been on the one in Breckenridge Park. There's also a miniature train there I took them on, and of course, to the zoo.

Playland Park was closed in 1980. I didn't have munchkins at the time.

Any pics I had of Breckenridge Park went with the divorce.

Now I am wondering if there was three, because there is one at Kiddie Park or is that the same as Breckenridge and than there is the one that was at Playland.

Google?

That looks like Breckenridge Park.

There's a kiddie park across Broadway from where Playland Park used to be. I believe it has a carousel. I have no idea what the name of it is.

okay thanks! maybe they were by the same guy both Hershel's.

Breckenridge Park and Playland Park are/were two separate entities.

The only kiddie park I know of, as I said, is across the street and down a little ways on Broadway from where Playland Park used to be. I don't know how long it's been there. My guess would be it cropped up when Playland Park closed.

If it is that same kiddie park, it's kind of run down and not in a nice part of town. Playland closed because it had become nothing but a hangout for Mexican/Mexican-American gangs, and people quit taking their kids there.

You didn't look at my link on the previous page. The carousel at Playland Park was a 1917 C.W. Parker. It got auctioned off in pieces. If your mom's interested in pieces, I think I've seen one of the horses in a window on Broadway. I can't imagine that it would have come from anywhere here BUT Playland.

I did, they are two different carrousels one my parker the other by Hershel which is what it said about the one at Kiddie park. There is also a website that says there is one at Breckenridge but I am thinking it is the same carrousel or there was three at one point.

 

[Luissa]

I looked at the last website you posted, those are Parker's also and different carrousel from the other two.

 

[Luissa]

I will let my mom know about the horse in the window because they are trying to put that carrousel back together.
