Creator(s): Powers, Thomas E., 1870-1939, artist
Date Created/Published: 1894 Mar. 15 [publication date]
Summary: Several Irish-Americans celebrate St. Patrick's Day with a parade. Policeman and politicians march in the streets, carrying such banners as 'Erin Go Bray' and 'Horay for Irlan.' Children in tattered clothing follow the parade. A drunk lies against a lamp post. The end of the parade route is 'City Hall,' New York's Tammany Hall.
Notes:
Inscribed on verso: This looks crude, but that is intentional as it is supposed to have been drawn by a school boy 'Willie.' In reality it's a wonderful bit of art work.
