Did you know that carousels have their own day? Apparently, the holiday – which is celebrated on July 25th in the US – was created in honor of the merry-go-round’s official inventor, William Schneider. Schneider patented the first carousel in 1871. There are approximately two hundred original wooden carousels still remaining of the thousands that were conceived during that time.<\/p>\n

In honor of carousels past and present, we went round-and-round through our royalty-free images to find some of our best. Each image is available for downloading. Enjoy.<\/p>\n
