SANDUSKY, Ohio (AP) - The holiday display at the White House this year includes a couple of carousel animals from the Merry-Go-Round Museum in northern Ohio.

The curator of the museum in Sandusky delivered four carousel deer to the White House this past week. Three are from the Merry-Go-Round Museum and another comes from a private collection in New Jersey.

The museum’s Kurri Lewis tells the Sandusky Register (https://bit.ly/1ynBhc5 ) that he got a call in August asking if the museum would be able to provide a few carousel animals to the White House.

He personally delivered them last weekend after all were checked by the Secret Service to make sure they weren’t a security risk.

The deer will remain on display at the White House until late December.
