3:50 - You can very clearly see what is now Spin nightclub in the background at Halsted/Belmont.
2:48 - car starting up. I haven't heard a car start up like that in years.
3:00-3:18 - You can see a "Halsted" street sign. That's shot at the intersection of Halsted and Aldine. The Nookies Tree building is in the background at the right.
What a wonderful historical record.

This is people being who they are

@ 0:21 the float says "The Gold Coast" which was Chicago's first gay leather bar...

All I know for sure is that this was filmed before body hair was outlawed on gay men!

Chicago, Illinois, June 26, 1977 - - That's where I would place it. I recognize the intersection of Belmont & Halsted. The models of the cars, the color of the license plates, and the reference to Anita Bryant would put this in 1977. With cars parked on the street and traffic coming from the other direction, it looks like Mayor Bilandic had not yet started to grant parade permits to the gay community.

This footage was filmed in Chicago. If you look very carefully, you can see a vintage CTA bus ride by. This footage made me laugh and cry. I miss my old friends SO much!

This is fantastic. I love it! There are so many amazing things here. The guys sitting on the piles of crates, the guy rolling off the film...all groovy!

This is fantastic. I love it!

This was very interesting. Chicago is definitely the locale for this parade. Just looking at the cars & hairstyles from that era brings back memories. I noticed 1 thing however. The parade apparently was on just one side of the street. They didn't have the whole street back then? Today, it would be unthinkable, not to mention unwieldy.
