Great pics, Bob! That first picture appears to have been taken in 1958'ish outside Memorial Coliseum in Los Angeles. Those trumpets you see the participants playing were a foot long and made of brass. Each sold for $1.00. Capable of playing six notes, they came with instructions for playing, "CHARGE!"
They were an instant hit with fans. Unfortunately, they also shattered on impact; and they sounded less like a bugle, and more like a kazoo. So they had to stop selling them.
What did you expect for a dollar?
Now those Trench pennants the vendor's also offering--can't go wrong there.
