The record gives only the title "Parade," with no date or location, so the specific procession shown here cannot be identified with confidence. The image is a 5 x 7 inch or smaller glass negative, a format that early twentieth-century photographers used for sharp detail. The George Grantham Bain Collection holds images from the Bain News Service, a New York picture agency that supplied newspapers in the early 1900s, and parades with bands, floats and crowds were a common subject in its files.
