Description:
View of the caterpillar float during the 1925 Hudson's Thanksgiving Day parade. The caterpillar has a man's head wearing a hat. Spectators in foreground. Stamped on back: "Spencer & Wyckoff, photographers, Detroit." Typed on sheet: "(M) Here is the caterpillar. This was 85 feet long and operated by about eighteen men walking along under the covering. I think it was about the biggest thing in the parade and certainly created a lot of excitement among the children."
