Truck Towing Sesame Street Parade Float

Float in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. A black and white International Harvester Scout 4x4 truck is towing a Sesame Street themed parade float. Muppets Big Bird, Oscar the Grouch, Rodeo Rosie, Bert and puppeteer Kermit Love can all be seen on the float, along with several adults and children. The float is made to resemble two buildings separated by stairs, and includes a signpost reading "CTW Sesame Street." The Macy's storefront can be seen in the background, along with parade spectators behind a police line, and uniformed police officers. Camera crews are in the foreground on the right. |
