Shot on 8mm film in 1958, this vintage home movie captures a group of children and an adult riding in a parade float in Cheyenne County, Kansas. The children, dressed in colorful 1950s clothing including sweaters and headscarves, wave and smile as the float moves past brick buildings. A woman in a dark coat stands behind them, smiling.
