The seller I bought this from says it is 1908, but I don't see a date anywhere. Do You? Is there a good view of clothing or horse and buggy, etc that help us to date it? My eyes are not so good.

What do you think may be the date?? The seller said 1908.
I went to the Rose Parade when I was 15. Spent the night there to get a front row view. Horrible experience as there was a cold santa ana blowing and there was nothing to do. Have no memory of the actual parade.
WOW! Not too impressed ? And the parade may have experienced many damages to floats due to Santa Ana! I have only seen the parade on TV. And this photo is before TV. I am not impressed either!
Even the description on the back of the card made me yewn!
.These lookers left soe love! Thanks

I think I would have been more impressed if we would have been prepared. Spending the night out there with the 50 mph gusts with nothing to do left me is a daze by the time the parade started.
Seems like a lot of children had similar experiences--My dad and I were are a White Sox game in the 1940s and my dad was trying to explaine the game. I was distracted by the hot dog man, the peanet man and the people and no interest in the game or what I was seeing on the field!! So this is an outing in reverse--attentive dad and a kid who just wanted everything the venders had for sale I remember at the exit he bought me a "monkey" on a stick with colored feathers on his tail. My mom said How was the game? to me and I am sure my wors were--"Look daddy got me a monkey on a stick!!". Poor dad.
Well. fot heavens sake! i don't even know WHEN the Pose Bowl Parade is???
