Description:
A photographic slide in a small cardboard Kodachrome frame (off white with yellow and red corner trim). The frame is labeled "July 4 1963" in handwriting. The image shows a lateral view of the left side of First Street, captured from an angle facing away from Seward Street. Two buildings are featured in the background, the unadorned building to the left of Percy's (unseen), and to the left of that, the awning of a mostly unseen structure. In front of the buildings, a large crowd is gathered. On the street, a procession is walking toward Seward Street, mostly costumed in cardboard boxes painted with Tlingit designs. The second member of the procession, a young boy, carries a United States flag. The text "4 AUG 63P" is printed in red ink on the frame at the upper edge.
