Play Family Merry-Go-Round

#111

c1972-1977

The Popularity of #969 Ferris Wheel made way for this spin-off of sorts. Again we have a Little People set centered around a Swiss movement music box that propels a carnival ride into action when it is wound up. As in the Ferris Wheel, the Merry Go Round is run by the ever-cranky mad boy, who lets all the riders know that he's woefully underpaid and overworked. Instead of, "In The Good Ol' Summertime", the song featured in the Merry-Go-Round is "The Skaters Waltz". The Merry-Go-Round has a masonite base and 4 seats for Little People riders. The seats resemble animal figures: a giraffe, pig, turtle, and a swan.
