4. When was this picture taken?
Is it Depression Era? Earlier? Later?

It frightens me that these people ever felt justified/righteous enough to march around in their robes in Washington!
Lest we forget.

6. A hint: look at the stars on the flag.
It's between 1912-1959, chances are it's from the 20's, when they were at their strongest.

Have some interesting history about how influential they were (in the DNC, no less) back then:

9. Of course!
Thank you for that. It must be the '20's. I did read about the 1924 convention in a very good one volume bio of FDR (A Traitor to His Class.)
