Party Balloons! 1957 Christmas Float
John Holly Williams Collection, LLF Library
From the Library: Young ladies on float for a day-time Christmas parade. One lady may be Ann Atkinson. Date 12/21/1957. Recognize anyone? If so, please leave a message here or on my Facebook page.
That is absolutely Ann Atkinson on the back right wearing , I believe, some type of fur! The beauty in front on right might be one of Mrs. Branch's lovely daughters. I hope you might stumble upon a photo of a Christmas parade float featuring Raggedy Ann (my sister, Kathy) and Raggedy Andy inside a faux toy shop. Kathy was wearing an impressive red yard wig.
