This event is thought to be part of the celebrations held in Palmerston North at the end of World War Two. Military and civilians, including the Mayor Gus Mansford, stand before a crowd on the rostrum, while the band stands to attention. Behind (from left) can be seen band rotunda; Commercial Building and Rosco department store (C M Ross). Also see 2011G_ELMAR-2-B10_005217 and 2011G_ELMAR-2-B10_005218
