EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1925, we are transported back in time to witness the enchanting May Day ceremony in Washington, D. C. The image captures a moment of pure joy and excitement as Dorothy Zimmerman, dressed as Spring herself, delicately places a crown upon Irma Sweeney's head. Irma stands tall and regal, adorned in a beautiful white dress with a veil cascading down her back. Surrounded by an eager crowd of children and adults alike, the atmosphere is filled with admiration for these young girls taking part in this cherished American tradition. The streets are lined with people waving flags and holding flowers, adding to the festive ambiance. The May Day parade marches on nearby as onlookers cheer along the route. It is evident that this celebration holds great significance for both participants and spectators alike. This remarkable photograph allows us to glimpse into early 20th-century America - a time when community celebrations like these brought people together to honor springtime renewal and rejoice in youthful innocence. Preserved by The Granger Collection, it serves as a reminder of our shared cultural heritage and the enduring power of tradition.
