Description
Photograph of an automobile decorated with flowers in the La Fiesta de Los Angeles parade, 1906. A car covered in what appears to be pine branches sits on a paved street at center while a young man sits at the steering wheel and three women dressed in darkly colored clothing sit inside holding matching parasols. Three men and one woman look at the float while a young African American girl watches the people in the decorated carriage.
