Description
Photograph of a Mexican American band in a parade, 1937. Men dressed in lightly colored Mexican style suits walk in straight formation while playing instruments. Men in the front bang on drums while men in the back hold onto instruments that are not visible. A cluster of horses can be seen walking along the paved parade route in the left background while large groups of spectators watch from either side of the street. Buildings with large signs line the right side of the street while trees are scattered about the side of the street. This parade seems to be a continuation of the same parade pictured in CHS 46141.
