Animated Store Display with Ferris Wheel & Carousel

An electric animated store display by Baranger Studios with a Ferris wheel, carousel, burger stand and lovebird couples sold in a December 2020 Pook & Pook auction for $8,540. A sign over the eatery reads, “You Can Be Her Love Bird / Buy That Diamond Now.” The 18- by 25-inch display was sold with its original fitted cardboard shipping crate. The store display took the top price in the sale that featured vintage windup toys.
