Description
Photograph of a view of Broadway from Fourth Street to Fifth Street during a Shriners Parade, showing flags, automobile, and streetcars, ca.1925. Automobiles and streetcars fill the paved lanes of Broadway, receding into the center background. Rows of flags hang above the street, while sculpted camels and palm trees sit on pedestals along the left side of the street. A pedestrian crowd fills the sidewalk along the left side of the image. Commercial high-rise buildings line both sides of the street. Legible signs, from left to right, include: "The Man Who Has Made Millions Think", "Steckel Studio", "Hair Goods", "Cigars", "Stack Bldg. Entrance Fourth St.", "The Sun Drug [?]".
