Blackfoot Idaho 4th Of July Main Street Indians Hardware 1910 Real Photo Postcard

This postcard captures a parade likely promoting a traveling circus or Wild West show in an American small town during the late 19th or early 20th century. The banner advertising IN THE BIG TENT TO NIGHT is a clear indicator of such an event, which typically featured musical bands and performers, including Indigenous individuals often depicted in ceremonial attire on horseback, as seen here. Townspeople line the unpaved street, and businesses like H.W. CURTIS HARDWARE reflect the local commercial landscape of the era.
