Description
Digital image of photo of the Hoboken Playgrounds Field Band marching in 900 block on Washington Street, Hoboken, no date, circa late 1920's - early 1930's. Original image was ca. 4" wide x 2-1/2" high. Photographer is not known. People are not individually identified.
Julius Durstewitz does not appear in this image. Which parade is not identified, but it was possibly the Decoration (Americanization) Day parade and thus in late May or early June. The band is in the nautical uniforms which seem to be from the late 1920's. Search for related images.
The sign for Neri Electrical Shop seen in the background was at 928 Washington Street (west side of Washington St.) which means they were marching north, thus this view is looking southwest.
Detail of center right image found on recto of leaf 24 (image 4 of 5) of Julius & Marie Durstewitz album, see primary record 2005.078.0100 for a description of the album and provenance. Note the verso of leaf twenty-four is blank. See related.
