Original black and white photograph captures a scene from Chappaqua's Bicentennial Parade, September 6, 1920, featuring a trio of men dressed in 18th-century colonial attire. One carries a drum, another holds a fife, and the third marches with an American flag, evoking the spirit of the Revolutionary War. They lead a procession down a residential street, bordered by a stone wall and lined with spectators dressed in 1920s-era fashion.
