Title: Truck Towing Cave-Like Float in Parade
Description: Color photo of a Thanksgiving Day Parade, either Macy's Parade in Manhattan, New York, or Gimbels' Parade in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. A tan and white International Harvester Scout 4x4 tows a parade float which resembles a cave-like structure with bars on two sides below and mud huts with domed tops above. Children on the lower level are gathered at the front of the float around a ladder, and children on top are dressed in what may be caveman costumes. A sign for Bond's department store is visible in the background.
