The layout is very similar, not very fond of the fiber-glass machines, but glad to see the enthusiasm for a good carousel. Also great to hear another Frati play. I have offten wondered if there were other Frati machines out there.
NO not wooden gingerbread. the ornate wooden trim is plastic on this carousel. the woodcarvers took the original off for safety. the gingerbread is on the rafters on the top. I have the original gingerbread at home.
This organ is half wurlITzer 150 and 165. it takes 150 rolls and 165 rolls.
