Description
Amazing photo concerning the homecoming celebration
of the Meadville PA boys in Company B, Spanish American War, 1899.
This is an
ORIGINAL
cabinet photo and truly a one of a kind item.
The scene is the great parade, a huge event in Meadville.
Perhaps someone from the area can pinpoint the exact location where the photo was taken.
Some of the clippings below offer some hints of the parade route.
The regiment was formed around the Pennsylvania National Guard and consisted of 8 companies
mainly from Western PA. Company B was formed in Meadville PA.
I have done some research concerning the welcome home, so please review some of the clippings.
The photo remains in VG condition and is much clearer than I can present here.
The overall size is 6-1/2 x 5-1/2.
The actual scene itself is 4-5/8 x 3-1/2
The research items are NOT included with the sale of the cabinet photo,
but the buyer is welcome to print them.
