A large arch decorated in garlands and flags covers the street. A banner on the arch reads "Buffalo Bill's Wild West Sept. 4th." Nate Salsbury, owner and manager of the Wild West Show, stands in the right foreground wearing a white top hat and suit. Buck Taylor, a cowboy and star in the show, rides a horse in the right background. Numerous other riders, including some Native Americans, ride in the background. A wagon pulled by three teams of horses carries a band down the street. Throngs of spectators line the street to view the parade. A dog stands in the left center foreground. A banner advertising E.D. Klock's Wholesale Millinery offering straw and felt hats, bonnets, ribbons and silks hangs from the top of the building in the left midground. The Davies & Williams tailor shop is next door to the millinery. An advertisement for the "[?] Morning Herald" (full name is blocked) is painted on the top of a building farther down the block. |
