Description
Photograph of religious floats at the Rose Parade, 1925. A float with a large cross on it slowly rides along a paved street to the left of center while gigantic dense crowds of spectators stand on both sides of the street and into the distance. The exceptionally large crowd of parade watchers might indicate this was the end of the parade. Flags hang from wires over the street while a float can be seen behind the first. Three and four story buildings line the street while many store fronts are visible along the route.
