Description:

Participants lining up for the annual Christmas parade sponsored by Rudy's Department store, usually held at the very beginning of December. The store hired children to escort the float and pictured here are boys dressed as clowns (toting drums and bugles), as well as boy scouts (likely Troop 1). Santa Claus looks on from the shadows of the float.
