Object Detail


Brief description
Pennants and decorations are suspended along and across the street. Stamp on back of photograph reads: "S.J. Hood Photographer 124 Pitt St. Sydney Tel. B 1845". The parade in this image is moving between Town Hall and St. John's Gardens. The wool themed float appears to be covered with masses of fleece or a facsimile. The float features women wearing contemporary fashions, and what is presumably a three dimensional representation of a sheep. Boys in scout type uniforms accompany this
