If you are doing temporary exhibits, check with the Carriage Association of America for members close to you. They may have to contact the member for you (since many organizations do not willy nilly give out their membership lists). Many members of the CAA have their own fabulous private collections of horse drawn vehicles and horse mannequins.  They also have display units for their harnesses.  They might be willing to loan you theirs for short time periods.  The Buggy Museum is willing to loan its one and only horse to nearby museums through the winter (sorry, we can't do without Dobbin from April through October).

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Horse Mannequins

 

Hi All, We are in the initial stages of putting together an exhibit on the Horse in North Dakota and we are looking for sources for horse mannequins or suggestions on how to display bridles, saddles etc.  Does anyone have any ideas or sources they could share with us.  Thanks in advance.
