History of the Veiled Prophet parades and other events in Saint Louis, starting in the 1870s. Organized by business owners and instituted following bitter labor-management strikes, and based, according to the author, "as an expression of class control," with illustrations of the figure inspired by a Medieval Moslem prophet.
