Lined with spectators on both curbs and stretched across nearly the full width of the frame, this panoramic view captures a parade moving down a crowded city street, its procession running almost to the horizon. Street parades of this kind were a regular feature of American city life in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, drawing workers, families and local organizations into the streets for civic celebrations, labor marches and holiday processions. The wide format was well suited to recording such crowds, since a single exposure could take in the marchers, the buildings and the onlookers together. Look closely at the upper windows and rooftops, where many residents often gathered to watch.
