The Home of the American Raccoon


Stamped on the back of the photo: "Fairhill Studios, 2918 N. Sixth St., Philadelphia, Radcliff 2317."
There are three or more raccoons making their home in the wire mesh enclosure behind the "Home of the American Raccoon" sign. The fellow on top is wearing some sort of ribbon or badge, and another ribbon is dangling among the branches below him.
This may be a parade float, though It's hard to tell for sure. In any case, I wonder why these two guys are touting the "Home of the American Raccoon."

I could understand if this was British, or some other country where there are no raccoons - but Pennsylvania? US? It's not like people don't see them a lot here.
Or perhaps this is at a time when they were far more scarce - given the huge popularity of raccoon coats?
