Description
Photograph of an electrical parade at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, ca.1932. The photograph is taken from high in the endzone, looking toward the peristyle end of the stadium. Fifteen lighted floats are circling the track, while several non-lighted floats can be seen as well. There appear to be people on the infield. Spotlights are shining on the track from on top of the archways of the peristyle entrance. The stands are packed with spectators.
