Making an "entrance" into a city was important to the Parade of Progress. The parade through the city streets was often times led by a marching band. The 44 vehicle caravan was an impressive sight to see and provided additional publicity for the event which was usually held at a fairgrounds location outside of town. Only two of these photos were labeled. The one on the right is of St. Catharines, Ontario (near Niagara Falls) and the lower right of Akron, Ohio.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
If you have any additional information about the history or whereabouts of additional Futurliners, we would like to hear from you. Our objective is to capture as much of the history of these vehicles as possible.
