Description
Photograph of a crowd celebrating at a parade for Charles Lindbergh near the Chamber of Commerce building on September 20, 1927. A line of specators is partially visible in the foreground, their hands thrown in the air as a flower-covered automobile and the precession behind it passes by them. More of the crowd can be seen along the sidewalk to the left, the city buildings in the background.
Legible signs from left to right include: "Los Angeles Desks [...]", "Auto Park", "West Coast Stationary - Printing Co.", "Maxwell House Coffee", and "Pan Gas".
