Carousel Rounding Board - Face

This figure adorns the rounding board of the Herschell-Spillman Carousel, Balboa Park, San Diego, California. Built originally in 1910 for Luna Park in Los Angeles. It has a menagerie of hand carved wooden animals, all original, except for two small ponies, the original hand-painted murals surrounding the upper portion of the carousel, and the original military band music.
