University of Southern California Medical School Float in Los Angeles' La Fiesta Parade, ca.1894

Photograph of the USC Medical School Float in Los Angeles' La Fiesta Parade, ca.1894. The University of Southern California's horse-drawn cart decorated with flowers and palm leaves bears the sign "Medical College U.S.C." while a group of men in lightly-colored clothing stand on top of it, one of whom is dressed as a skeleton, and who holds an actual skeleton. Shop fronts are visible behind them. Legible signs include: "Jas. Jones Manufacturer of Glass and Iron Goods [...]" and "Wood Work / Architectural Wood Carving / Scroll Sawing [...]". The float is located on the west side of Main Street between Seventh Street and Eight Street.
