74th Tournament of the Roses (1963)

 

I've a whole box of slides for this parade, complete with descriptions of the slides. 

Well, descriptions of all slides...except this one.... but it's fairly self-explanatory. 1963, Rose Bowl, Pasadena, Parades, crowds, etc.

If that's whetted your appetite, Youtube

Bonus - January the second is traditionally teh date I read about Social structure of frog-eating bats.

Bonus 2 - Syphilis has a complex linguistic history. Even as the English used to call it the French disease, the French called it the Neapolitan one. The Russians called it Polish, the Poles called it German, the Germans called it French and the Danish called it Spanish.
