Description
Photograph of a view of Spring Street looking north from First Street during the La Fiesta Parade, Los Angeles, ca.1903. Spectators gather in crowds in front of the two-story Victorian shop buildings that line either side of the paved street, watching a procession of horsemen and banner-carriers make their way down the street. Small American flags decorate one of the buildings in the foreground where a few partially illegible words have been scrawled on the negative in marker. The Hollenbeck Hotel can be seen in the distance to the right. Legible signs include: "Ice Cream / Keystone [...]", "Corona Blanca", "The Hub", "Putnam", and "Dental College Infirmary / Free Dental Clinic".
