Cafesjian's Carousel

Excerpt on back:
Cafesjian's Carousel - Saint Paul, Minnesota
Built in 1914 by the Philadelphia Toboggan Company, this carousel with its 
68 hand carved wooden horses delighted riders at the Minnesota State Fair
for 75 years. Community effort saved the carousel from auction in 1988. The carousel is named for its major financial donor. Volunteers operate it each summer at Saint Paul's Como Park.

Wow a nice card that came via swap-bot. Thanks to Jillyfish for this
fascinating piece of card explaining about the restoration.
