Title: Young Girl with '76 Flag Watching Truck Caravan
Description: Seven-year-old LuRae Criscione watches the International Harvester United States Armed Forces Bicentennial Caravan. LuRae is dressed in red, white, and blue clothes with a large '76 flag in one hand and a miniature flag in the other. She is sitting by the side of a road while watching the procession of International Transtar II heavy-duty trucks.
