a magical Saturday afternoon at Glen Echo Park, Maryland. The 1921 Carousel is restored to what it would have looked like in 1921. Families picnicing, tie-dying at the yurt next to the Carousel, vanilla ice cream, frisbees. shot with Canon digital pocket camera.
The Wurlitzer 165 really dounds like Kennywood's Wurlitzer 153 on their dentzel in this video, but of course a 153 is basically a 165 minus a few registers playing off of 150-scale rolls...

I posted a 1966 radio spot on Glen Echo when it was an amusement park.

The one right outside the Virginia Air and Space Center. I'm pretty sure it's just called the Hampton Carousel.
