The title "27th Parade" is the only identifier here, and the record notes it comes from unverified information written on the negative or its caption card, so the unit, occasion, and location remain uncertain. The title most likely refers to a military or civic organization numbered 27, such as a National Guard unit marching in a city procession. The picture belongs to the George Grantham Bain Collection, made by the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied news photographs from the early 1900s into the 1920s. Its glass negatives record how public parades were staged, and they show the crowds, uniforms, and street settings that made such events newsworthy at the time.
