The coach is decorated with tiny flower buds on its sides and wheels, and has made out the initials of "C of C" on the side. The card affixed to the float reads "Class Number C1". A clapboard-sided house is visible in the background.; Picture file card reads: "The great President Roosevelt was here.", and "L.A. Times Sunday 5-5-1901: 'Events of Society / One of the handsomest Tally-ho coaches that will appear in the La Fiesta Parade is that of the Cham. Of Com., which will follow the president's carriage.
