Carousel Elephant

Unlike most of my work, the carousel elephant was a restoration project.  This elephant was in storage in Riverside, MO in August of 1993.  The storage facility was under 8-10 feet of water for several days.  The end result is that the elephant fell apart.   During the cleanup effort, some parts of the elephant were lost despite repeated trips by me to locate the pieces.  I built the missing pieces and restored the elephant to it's current condition.
