Winter’s Icy Grip (1928)

No titles. Miami in Florida, United States of America. Several shots show carnival floats sweeping along the streets of Miami in a flower festival parade, held to inaugurate the winter season. It looks very windy - flags and float decorations billow in the wind as a large crowd looks on. A girl in a white dress standing on a fruit-themed float gives us a nice smile. Note: according to paperwork a sequence preceded this footage, showing Niagara Falls as an “enchanting picture of icy beauty“ due to continuous below zero weather. This section appears to be missing.
