This image compliments a story that ran in The Manawatu Evening Standard on 14th March 1971 [The Manawatu Oroua Electric Power Board float has a dragon with flashing eye and sound effects, as it crosses the Square in the Centenary Parade. The truck is towing a trailer with household appliances from across the years. The grid under their wheels has pictures painted on the roadway as part of the celebrations.]
