Filmed at Hall's Amusements, Chapel St Leonards on September 25th 2021. ""Silver" was one of the original three models that Edwin Hall & Co. released when they first started producing kiddie rides in 1953. The horse was made of wood and had "real" hair but the design was quickly modified to include a molded mane (presumably the mane was too easily pulled out/otherwise damaged). Even the molded mane underwent several changes over the years with the forelock originally raised and "windswept" and later more tidily curled, for example. Later models were made of aluminium and, after that, fibreglass. The horses continued to be manufactured with real tails until approximately 1966 when the design was updated again to have a molded tail. Earlier models also came with real leather tack, whereas the simplified later ones just had moulded, painted fibreglass saddles, bridles and harnesses. Originally, the ride was sold on an ornately painted high semi-circular or half- decagon base, complete with a step up to it, and worked at two speeds - the horse would start out at a "trot" but would "gallop" when the leather reins were pulled, activating a mechanism connected to the bit in his mouth. I'm not sure how long this feature lasted. Later models just had a metal bar for reins (to go with their moulded saddle and bridle) so would have just worked at the one 'rocking' pace. Although usually known as "Silver" (with this name painted on the base), he seems to be called "The Cowboy Horse" or simply "Horse" in most advertising material of the time. A Pathé news clip from 1956 also shows one of these horses being painted light brown so it's possible they could be personalised at the buyer's request. Record playing equipment was installed as an option at first, but was soon included inside the bases by default. I don't know what tune was played though. All of the horses were well and truly mute by the time I rode them. It seems that R.G. Mitchell, who bought Edwin Hall & Co. in 1976, sold some of these horses in the late 1970s as a few have been spotted with RGM footplates or even on the RGM bases which were made for the much smaller "Rocky" ride. Whether these were manufactured by the R. G. Mitchell company, or they were just using up old Edwin Hall stock remains a mystery." I got quite tearful when I found this beauty hiding inside Hall's Amusements (despite the name, I don't think there's a connection between manufacturer and owner!) a few years ago, still sporting his original paintwork, albeit rather tatty. Alas, "good things" never last and he has now been refurbished and resprayed...but still kind of in keeping with his original appearance. I'm glad I was able to document him while he was still painted as he left the factory almost 60 years ago. See the video here: • Видео It's nice to see an old ride holding its own outside an arcade alongside all the more modern offerings...and interesting to see how kids will still choose to ride an old fashioned horse over something more high tech!
