Default Independence Day Parade Model A Decorating Ideas

I'm assuming that at least some communities will be having a parade on Independence Day. Can some folks post pictures of how you have decorated your Model A's? I'd love do see what you have done in the past.

I just saw a page in the latest AACA magazine that referred to a catalog printed in the time period about decorating cars for parades.

I flipped through the magazine again, and I didn’t see it. My latest copy is May/June 2020. Is that the copy you referenced?

Its a copy of a period advertisement. Its on the very last page (100) of the May/June issue. Not really any info on that page other than a reference to the book. I am sure the AACA library has it. You may be able to look for it from them online.
