WP1909 WPG - VICTORY PARADE PEACE DAY JULY 19, 1919
Unposted.

Publisher / Photographer: Meyers Photo

The Victory Parade down Portage Avenue, celebrating Peace Day (the end of WWI) on July 19, 1919. The buildings are on the north side of Portage Avenue - looking east from Smith Street.

Some great signage, including "Kensington Building", "Lamberts Upstairs Clothes Shop", "Rannard Shoes - store No 3", "Semi-ready Tailoring" (semi-ready?!?), "Tweed Dentist", "Boston Lunch", and "Dunlop's Drugs".

That's the most of the Paris Building I've ever seen in an RPPC. This is only a month after the General Strike cards: seems like everything is back to normal.
