According to the description on the divided back of this Real Photo Post Card, this float is titled "Home Sweet Home," showing a "model bungalow covered with bougainvilla vines and a lawn with orange trees, palms, shade trees and flowers." It was "awarded a first prize." A single row of people lines the parade route in the foreground, watching this horse-drawn vehicle with its African-American grooms wrangling liveried horses.
