Description
Photograph of a drawing of a Chinese dragon on parade, Los Angeles, in La Fiesta? Crowds of people on both sides of the street look on at the very long dragon. Lines of pendants hang across the street. One includes an American flag. A banner at left reads "Welcome" and depicts the picture of a man and American flags. A long row of 3-story buildings lines the right side of the street. The drawing may derive from an edited photograph.
