Black and white photo of a group of men in late 19th-century costume and men in contemporary Department of Street Railways conductor uniforms posed beside the horses of a horse-drawn streetcar taken during the parade to promote Timken's trucks on January 8, 1931. A man in a top hat and coat, and a man in a fur coat and conductor's coat appear to be presenting documents to the central conductor, as the surrounding people look on. In the background on the right, a woman in 19th-century costume including a broad brimmed hat, holds a baby beside another similarly dressed woman, and a man in a top hat with sideburns on the streetcar's platform.
