Best Parade

These pictures were taken of a Christmas Parade held December 6, 1946, a Saturday. Leona Gill, Mary Alice Irwin and I, watched from 6th Street. It was the best Parade East Liverpool ever had. Pictures courtesy of Frank Dawson, From the Frank Dawson personal collection of photographs. As can be seen by the pictures of this parade, ELO was once a big deal and could put on a holiday parade as good as anything Macy's could do for a holiday parade.

The above was written by Ann Pomeroy.
