Description
Photograph of La Fiesta de Los Angeles celebration, ca.1909. Two darkly colored horses pull a carriage covered in some sort of plant life. Women wearing Victorian style dresses with large hats sit and stand on top while a man with a tall hat holds the reins up front. A sign in the center reads "Floral Parade...Mystic Shrine Los Angeles..." A larger sign to the right reads "Post Office Clerks". A building with the address 1516 is visible behind the horses on the left while a similar building is under construction on the right.
