Wolf (my rocking-horse soul sister!),
When I saw this post, I knew EXACTLY the type of rocking horse you were speaking about. A present for my 3rd B-day, this was one of my favorite toys in my early years ( to this day, I love any type of rocking or swinging motion)
I was also a big Sally Starr fan. For some reason I can't recall, my favorite part of the show was the mail (remember the off-screen "pony express" would gallop up and throw the saddlebags of mail into the shot then gallop away)
Some of my other favs from my youth include Chief Halftown, Captain Kangaroo and Kimba
