My son’s rocking horse

He has not actually used it for about 32 years (he’ll turn 37 this summer), but it was the one toy from his childhood I couldn’t bear to give away, and it now resides in our basement. It was already old when we bought it for him secondhand, so it must be a veritable antique by now. The ears are leather and the rest is unpainted wood (except for the painted-on face); it gives me pleasure every time I go down to the basement, which is often.
