Parade Platform

Parade Platform

Parades--Ludlow (Mass.)

The picture shows a group of people in costume sitting on top of and/or standing around what appears to be a very lightly decorated float. A few bales of hay can be seen on the platform. What looks like a donkey is standing behind the float, being led by one of the costumed people. Some of the people are dressed in old-fashioned clothing, one child is dressed in what appears to be a striped prisoner's uniform. Several appear to have something like clown makeup on. 227 is printed in blue ink on the back of the photograph.
