A wide panorama of marchers filling an athletic field, with bleachers packed with spectators along the edge, shows how a parade could turn a sports ground into a civic stage. Photographs of this kind were often made from a high vantage point or by stitching several exposures together, so the scale of the formation is the point: rows of uniformed or costumed participants stretch nearly the full width of the frame. Look closely at the stands, where the crowd's density tells you as much about the event's popularity as the marchers do.
