Titled for the Fourth of July, this image records a holiday parade, a civic ritual that drew crowds to American streets each summer. The record gives no date or location, and the title comes from unverified notes made by the Bain News Service, a New York photo agency whose glass negatives form part of the George Grantham Bain Collection at the Library of Congress. Agency photographers of that era covered public events for newspapers and magazines, so pictures like this one capture the look of community celebrations in the early twentieth century. Viewers should treat the subject as a general one, since the specific parade and its date are not documented.
