Description
Photograph of the La Fiesta Parade between Broadway and Sixth Street showing President McKinley, Los Angeles, ca.1901. McKinley turns the corner of the two streets in a horse-drawn carriage that has been decorated with a layer of roses while a cavalcade of police officers follow him to his side both on foot and on horseback, as well as behind him in rank. Spectators sit and stand in the bleachers in the left background. To the right, a brick business building advertises yeast for the Golden Gate Compressed Wheat Company. Other legible signs include: "Thomas Day & Co. Gas Fixtures / Electric Fixtures", and "For Broadway Property Consult R.A. Rowan / 419 Douglas Building".
