Description
View showing the white men members of an unidentified marching band playing instruments as they walk down Broad Street, Philadelphia during the Peace Jubilee, a celebration commemorating the end of the Spanish American War. The Tenth Cavalry Regiment, an African American regiment that served at San Juan Hill, Cuba, marches and performs behind them. A large crowd stands on the sidewalk and sits in the viewing stands near the Columbia Avenue Savings Fund, Safe Deposit, Title & Trust Co. Depicts the east side of Broad Street looking southeast, including the spire of the Oxford Street Presbyterian Church in the distance. Bunting and American flags decorate the buildings. In October of 1898, Philadelphia honored the end of the Spanish-American War with the Peace Jubilee. To pay tribute to the armed services, the Court of Honor was built on Broad Street with the Triumphal Arch erected at Sansom Street. The celebration included military reviews and parades, and President William McKinley attended.
