Description
Photograph of a float decorated with hearts in the Fiesta de Los Angeles parade, ca.1915. The float can be seen in the middle of a road at center and is headed to the foreground at left. Several large hearts can be seen on the sides of the float and are adorned with lace. People in long, light-colored gowns are visible on top of the float, while many spectators line the street in the background. Tall buildings are visible on the far side of the street. Legible signs include, from left: "Select Beer", "Best Clothing in Los Angeles for Less Money", "Cohen, Misfit Clothing Tailor Made Suits $4.00 to $10.00", "Ireland", and "Drugs".
