Here’s clip 2 of 2 of a 1962 home movie showing a parade and people walking in very fancy costumes at Mardi Gras in New Orleans, Louisiana. Large crowds are people-watching. 

In addition to the many fancy, unusual costumes on display, a few highlights of the film include: A Goodyear blimp flying overhead; the word “HELL” standing on top of a building; and elaborate floats cruising down a street packed with people.
