The Rocking-Horse Man, benign and twinkling, smoking his pipe

The Rocking-Horse Man, benign and twinkling, smoking his pipe, showed off his dozen or so wooden patients one by one with their obvious macabre maladies: missing jaws, lost legs, most of them very battered and sad. Restoring them to handsome wholeness is not childs play. Each has an individual problem. New parts have to be fashioned to suit each period and type. December 1969 P004890
