Clarence and His Marching Band on Labor Day in Bridgeton, ca. 1910s

Clarence and His Marching Band on Labor Day in Bridgeton, ca. 1910s
Handwritten message on the back of this real photo postcard (no address or postmark): "My dear Aunt Clara, this post card was taken in Bridgeton on Labor Day. See if you can find me. Clarence."

The AZO stamp box on the other side (four corner triangles pointing up) suggests a date as early as 1904 to 1918.

Clarence and his marching band probably played in Bridgeton, New Jersey. I took a close look at the uniforms, music sheets, and drumhead but wasn't able to spot any names, insignia, or other details that would help to confirm the location or identify the band.
