Parade Floats Souvenir Program Excerpts

Parade Floats Souvenir Program Excerpts

The Historical Floats Parade, held on Monday, July 5th, 1920, in Portland, Maine, was a highlight of Maine’s Centennial celebration in 1920, with about two dozen floats representing moments from Maine’s European-American history. The official souvenir program for the centennial celebration contains a listing of the floats, along with black and white reproductions of the artist’s renderings of the floats. A selection of Joseph A. Damon’s painted sketches can be seen here.

The illustrations are accompanied by brief descriptions of each float and the names of the sponsoring individuals and organizations.

Printing is not supported at the primary Gallery Thumbnail page. Please first navigate to a specific Image before printing.
