Thousands of Roosevelt supporters paraded at night through the streets of downtown Tacoma preceding the Democratic Rally at the Coliseum on October 24, 1936. The crowd waved American flags and carried signs indicating support for Roosevelt from the Timber Workers and Longshoremen. The parade started at Union Station and ended at the Coliseum, 407 South 13th St., where the group cheered speeches by U.S. Senator Lewis B. Schwellenbach and local Democrats. Prominent in the background of this photograph is the Greenwich Coliseum, 407 So. 13th St., built in 1926 and demolished in 1975. In the thirties, it was an arena and ballroom with wrestling on Monday, boxing on Thursday and dancing on Friday and Saturday. In 1940, the structure became the Coliseum Bowling Palace and hosted decades of bowlers until it closed in 1972. (T. Times 10/26/1936, pg. 1)

This float, apparently entitled "Daffodil Daze," was decorated with three giant daffodils and a multitude of blossoms. Standing on the float is believed to be 1972 Daffodil Festival Queen, Paula Achziger. The parade itself has not been identified; it possibly could be the Seafair Parade which was held in late July of 1972.
