Description

A black and white snapshot, "Indians with Buffalo Bill, Los Angeles, Apr 13/14." ca. 1910s. The view shows a parade procession, likely for La Fiesta de Los Angeles, of Indians in headdresses and native clothing mounted on horses and moving down a commercial street. A man is also dressed in a cowboy outfit at the head with an Indian. This is presumably a contingent of the Buffalo Bill Wild West Show. A large billboard, a printing house, garage, bar and other businesses are in view in nearby buildings. The title is inscribed in pencil on the reverse. With stains, soiling and edge rubbing, the overall condition is good.
