Parade float

Title

Parade float

Description

Black and white image of six men in an old car, with one flat back wheel. One man brandishes a cricket bat, while baseball bats and balloons adorn the rest of the car. A spare radiator hangs from a large spare tire by the drivers' door, and the car is being towed by a chain. The license plate on the car states 'Oregon 1924' while a sign at the back says, 'See 'the FATS' beat 'the LEANS' at ball park later.' The car is parked in front of a house, and it appears to be summer, from the lush vegetation. A canister is being dragged behind the car, too.
