Description
Photograph of a formation of young boys standing near a horse-drawn float in the Pasadena Tournament of Roses Parade, ca.1905. The float is at center and is completely covered in leaves and flowers. An arch over the float is wrapped in a transparent ribbon, and a similar ribbon extends from the front of the float at left. There are five young girls and a man sitting in the float, all dressed in white. The rear end of the horse is visible at left. Six boys are lined up in two columns at right, and three are holding tall flags while the other three are holding ribbons attached to the float. A man on a horse is visible in the background, and the edge of a house is at left.
