Description

Photo of an automobile pulling a float in the 4th of July parade in Independence in 1950. The car has a sign on the roof that says, "Birth of a Nation," and it looks like there is someone standing on the float in Revolutionary-era clothing reading from a proclamation (Declaration of Independence?). The side of the Winnedumah Hotel is on the right and a gas station is on the left. There are many cars parked on Center Street in the background.
