You Can't Beat a Dead Horse

The Sheboygan Press needs some help figuring out what this photograph is all about.

A print of the photo was submitted to the Historical Research Center several years ago, said Kathy Jeske, but there was very little information attached.

"I don't think we have any idea," Jeske said. "There's no name on it, nothing."

The photo does say, on the back, that it was taken at Eighth Street and Indiana Avenue, and that it's of a man sitting on a dead horse. [Link, via Boing Boing]

Sounds like a job for the Forensic Genealogy folks. My own theory: This was an early merry-go-round prototype.
