Description
Photograph of a float in La Fiesta de Los Angeles celebration, ca.1915. A car covered in flowers sits at the curb of a paved street in the center. Two men sit in the front wearing English court wigs while two women sit in back holding lightly colored umbrellas. A pile of feces sits on the road in the left foreground. A house with rounded archways and striped awnings can be seen behind the car while the heads of a cluster of people are barely visible at the edge of the street.
