Our company is the largest company of its kind in the world and is dedicated to preserving and operating antique carousels. Our company owns, operates, maintains, and manages all aspects of the carousel operation. Our company currently operates five antique carousels in California, one in New York, and one in Pennsylvania. Our company has over fifteen years of experience in operating antique carousels in retail developments with GLA's ranging from 150,000 sq. ft. to 3,500,000 sq. ft. In New York, we manage a 65-ft. Ferris wheel for the mall owners and pay them a percentage rent. Our company owns 21 antique carousels, the largest collection in the world. We restore one every two years for permanent placement. Our company currently gives over 1.5 million rides each year. Our company has established and implemented the most thorough operator and safety procedure manuals ever developed for operating carousels. Over the last twenty years, our company has established itself with the best accident record in the industry. We have given more than fifteen million rides and have had only two small injuries, a pinched finger and a fractured ankle. Our company capitalizes on our personal preservation story and its operating carousels to create media events that will gain local and national attention. Our company promotes the developer as the community hero that saved an antique carousel from extinction. The developer becomes the reason the community can boast that it can enjoy one of the few remaining antique carousels. Combining our twenty-year history, location diversity, financial stability, and desire for long-term leases helps assure a development that it can count on a permanent carousel regardless of the development's highs and lows. Our antique carousels can replace old fountains, clocks, and other high maintenance, out-dated items which developers are trying to change without spending an enormous amount of capitol. An antique carousel can be placed in common areas of developments utilizing usually dead space that offer little return. Historic carousels pays percentage rent which allows a return on space that usually can not be leased. In a worldwide search of carousel owner and operators, our company was selected to operate a carousel in the 1986 World Exposition in British Columbia and the 1992 International AmeriFlora Exposition in Columbus, Ohio.
