PC-002-378
Float in the Pasadena Tournament of Roses Parade, Pasadena, California
Photographic paper: Azo
Two men stand beside a wagon covered in flowers, one carrying the number C1. The fringed banner he holds identifies the women in the wagon as post office clerks, "Branch 57, Los Angeles," apparently a branch of a labor union. All the women are wearing broad-brimmed hats. On the back the Azo stampbox design on this Real Photo Post Card indicates that the photographic paper used to develop this card was made between 1904-1918, limiting the dates of this card to 1907-1918, given the divided back.

In the bottom left corner there is the handwritten number 22.
