Australian Carousels


Here is some carousels from our friends in Australia!

The Luna Park photo show features horses from John and Arthur Anderson in Sydney, Australia.


This c.1914 carousel in Canberra, Australia was made by Herbert Thomson of Armadale, Victoria, for German showman Anton Weniger. It features four rows of four abreast horses along with two elephant carriages.


The Darling Harbour photo show features a carousel in Darling Harbour, Sydney, Australia. The horses were manufactured c. 1885 by G & J Lines and Co in London.


This photo show is of a 1892 Herschell-Spillman carousel that found its way to Australia. The carousel features 36 original horses and a Herschell-Spillman steam engine.


PTC #30, Melbourne, Australia

This PTC carousel is the only PTC that was exported outside the United States. The photo show includes some black and white photos of the horses taken in 1913, as well as current color photos of the same horses!
