Toothpick Carnival - The creative mind of William Jennings-Bryan Burke

This view shows the Ferris Wheel in the Playland carnival. This is a 7-foot high Ferris Wheel and as you can see runs very smoothly. Wouldn’t you love to take a ride on this?

This view shows the previous Ferris Wheel but from a different angle. Here you can see the cars as they pass by the loading area and get a close-up of the support structure.

This view is a shot from further away and allows you to see more of the base of the Ferris Wheel and the other rides on the other side. This is also the Playland Ferris Wheel.

This Ferris Wheel is a miniature that Burke built early on but we are not sure of the exact date yet. It is on display at Musee Mecanique museum on San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf.
