Description

The "Old Time Paper Boys" perform a sword dance in the street as a large crowd surrounds them and looks on. This performance is part of the annual Marshfield Mummers play, which occurs every year on Boxing Day. The Paper Boys are so-named because their costumes are made of many strips of newsprint and colored paper glued together.
