October Fall Classic
Lot 2088:
Description
Out of all the different large gambling wheels, these light-ups are the rarest, most eye catching of all. The colorful reverse glass reflecting the glimmering light. The large gold eagle on top, the chrome Queen Anne base legs and of course, the rows of gleaming lights that light even when spinning. A true gambling delight. A spectacular piece of decor. Although it does need some repair. One of the stop-pins needs replacing, several of the light sockets also need repair or replacing. A section of wood on the wheel needs repair along with refinishing, paint flaking throughout. One of the reverse silvered panel has a crack which is hardly noticeable. Otherwise a beautiful, hard to come by, high end collectors item. Please see photos.
55″ W x 83″ H
Circa 1940’s cast aluminum carousel horse most likely from a San Antonio Roller Works or a Mangles carousel.

Comes mounted on a pole and a steel diamond plate base. Comes with a pair of stirrups but no straps or bridle. NOTE: Pickup/Transport required. Contacts available post-auction.
