There's a wagon, or float, with a banner proclaiming it is the gift of Le Journal, a newspaper.
Men on it are handing stuff out to the crowd pressing round. White and similarly-shaped objects - newspapers being given away?
But what is this huge crowd, and what is the occasion? Do you know, LEP?
These are fascinating photos (as were last week's).
The third one used to be on Rue Montorgueil, and the station for the Creil stagecoach.
The eighth is a family from the 5th arrondissement indeed. Talk about gentrification... Un roi sans divertissement est un homme plein de misères
