Flying Horses Carousel
Flying Horses Carousel has delighted visitors in Oak Bluffs on Martha's Vineyard since 1876 and is the oldest continuously operating platform carousel in the United States. Designated a National Historic Landmark, the carousel features beautifully hand-carved wooden horses created by the Charles W. F. Dare Company. Riders continue the long-standing tradition of reaching for the brass ring, a classic amusement park game that has entertained generations of island visitors. Today, the Flying Horses remains one of Martha's Vineyard's most treasured historic attractions and a beloved symbol of Oak Bluffs.
This vintage-inspired Flying Horses Carousel print celebrates one of Martha's Vineyard's most iconic landmarks through the bold design language of classic WPA-era travel posters. The beautifully carved horses, historic carousel, and nostalgic charm of Oak Bluffs are rendered in a timeless style that captures the spirit of this enduring island tradition. Created for history enthusiasts, families, island visitors, and collectors of New England's scenic landmarks, this piece honors the craftsmanship, heritage, and joyful character that define the Flying Horses Carousel.
