    Hi. I recently stumbled upon this forum looking for help about an antique rocking horse I recently purchased.

    I purchased it on eBay a couple days ago. It is an antique that has been restored (treated for wood worm, new tail, hair and saddle) and was in the previous owners family for over 30 years.

    Could anybody help me with information on this horse? Information on around the time this was made and possibly how much it's worth should I decide to sell in the future?

    Thanks.

    Id say they bought it new , but that's just an opinion.

    My guess is between 1930s to the 1960s. Look at the ones on the following site. There are 4 that seem to have the same mechanism and wood frame. Scroll down the page to the 3rd pic "Bruce," 7th "Burton, 14th "Gertrude, and the 16th "Pendle" at the bottom of the page. Clicking the pics brings up more info.
