Sunshine Dairy horse-drawn wagon

Title

Sunshine Dairy horse-drawn wagon

Description

A black and white photograph by Allan J. de Lay featuring the Sunshine Dairy horse-drawn wagon at the Gay Nineties parade in 1963. The photograph was likely taken on the corner of Pacific Avenue and Main Street looking west.
This is one photograph from a collection on the Gay Nineties festival and the the Original All-Northwest Barbershop Ballad Contest in Forest Grove, Oregon. The festival centered around a theme of nostalgia for the 1890s decade. The event, which ran from 1947 through the 1990s, featured a parade downtown, residents dressing up in 1890s-themed costumes for the celebrations, local businesses decorating their window displays, and the crown jewel of the event, the Original All-Northwest Barbershop Ballad Contest, which earned Forest Grove the nickname "Ballad Town U.S.A."
