Description

People dressed as characters from the Wizard of Oz stand on top of a parade float. The sign on the front of the float reads: "Wizard of Oz." The word "Frontier" can be seen on the side of the float, possibly referring to the Last Frontier, which operated under that name from 1942-1955. This is possibly the Helldorado Days festival parade.
