Description

A young man wearing a sash and graduate cap stands in front of the horse-drawn bramble-decorated float of similarly dressed young men behind him. Five more young horsemen in similar uniforms stand a little to the right, one of them whipping a banner around above his head.

Legible signs include: "J.J. Tabor & Co. Carriage and Automobile Works.", and "Furnished". Picture file card reads "Schrimie".
