• Go behind the scenes for Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade over the years (northjersey.com) — North Bergen artists helped bring Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade floats to life, as archival photographs from November 1967 show. The collection captures workers painting figures and securing statues in their workshop, part of a process taking nearly a year, before moving to later scenes in Hoboken.
