	Equus Art applauds the substantial financial contribution of more than $AU2 million by the BCR Group to this project. Without their vision and commitment, this most significant heritage carousel would not have been returned to its original splendour. We thank Friends of Luna Park and in particular Julia Murray, for their unwavering belief that the carousel would be beautiful once again and their tireless efforts in making it happen. We thank all the people who made the restoration of PTC#30 possible. In the USA, to Brian Morgan, Barbara Williams, Barbara Charles and members of the NCA and to Rosa Ragan and Dan Horenberger for their support throughout this project. We thank Mississipi John Hurt for his "music to restore by" ('Avalon Blues, A Tribute to the Music of Mississipi John Hurt', Vanguard Records). To "Cluny", "Vincent", "Bonaparte", "Pomme", "CTGGG", "Paris", "Ottoman", "Mr Curly", "Little Lucky", "Gulliver", "Phoenix", "Vlad", "No 9" (the lead horse) and all the other horses of PTC#30 who shared our studio and home for two years, thankyou.
