International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union - Description:
- Wide view of parade, taken from across the street at second story level. The Daily Work float is shaped like a light skinned man in work clothes standing and reading a copy of the Daily Worker. The parade is heading toward the camera, American flags waving; spectators are standing on the sidewalk. Commercial facades and a park building are visible behind the parade and spectators.
