The Marietta Daily Journal – Former politician toys wins with model fun house

MARIETTA — A bright yellow model of a 1920s fun house not only delighted spectators with its twirling and spinning parts, it also brought home a big victory for a well-known local man.

On July 13, Randy Sauder, a former Cobb County state representative of Smyrna, won the Most Exotic Model award for the third straight year at the A. C. Gilbert Heritage Society National Convention in Chicago.

The event marked the 100 year anniversary of the founding of the A. C. Gilbert Company, which manufactured toys through the first half of the 1900s.

Sauder’s latest creation has 30 circus rides, including a rotating Ferris wheel and a merry-go-round with horses that move up and down, as well as music and laughter playing in the background.
