The image is a black and white contact sheet with multiple small rectangles showing street scenes. People are depicted from the waist up, in motion, outside. One man wears a suit and a hat, and several women have short, wavy hair. They wear coats and jackets suitable for cooler weather. Buildings with visible windows and American flags are seen in the background. The scene appears to be on a street with a crowd of people, possibly during a parade or public gathering, given the presence of national flags.
