Loemker, Herman J., 1868- 1937

Two horses wearing flower covered harnesses are pulling a large float. Adults are seated on the float which has been decorated with striped bunting. White fabric and striped bunting may be seen hanging from a rectangular frame that has been erected on the bed of the float. A triangular banner reading “MORAL” has been hung from the frame. The number 1361 is written on a label that has been stuck to the lower left corner of the slide.
