The carousel was made by Denizel I am fairly sure. That was installed in early part of last century. While I don't know who made the other rides, most kiddy ride's of that type made in that era were by Allen Hershel (sp.?). Those were put in place sometime in the 60's. Most of, If not all of the Memphis Kiddy Park rides were made by him.

Is there any X-Cubes or Game Boxes?

Lets see... Krazy Kars are a Dodgem, Kiddy Whip is from Mangels, the circular 'car' rides are from Hampton Amusements... Anyone know who made helicopters or 4x4s??

Sky Fighters and Helicopters are Allan Herschell; 4x4 and Sir Rub-A-Dub's Tubs are both from Venture, all the umbrella rides are from Hampton except the Roto-Whip which comes from Mangels. Over by the Gemini, those are all Hampton except for the bumper boats (?) and the Frog Hopper (S&S).
Oh, and the Jr. Gemini is Intamin. In Camp Snoopy, all that stuff came from Zamperla except for the Tilt-A-Whirl (Sellner) and Woodstock Express (Vekoma). The Speedway is Zamperla's copy of a Mangels kiddie Whip. I've heard that the Zamperla cars will work on a Mangels kiddie Whip, and I presume the reverse is also true.
