The Island was a float that appeared in Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
History with the Macy's Parade[]
In 1974, the talented people at the Macy's Parade Studio created an Island float for that year's Parade.
The float's design featured a sandy Island, complete with a giant palm tree.
The float's purpose is unknown, but it was used as a transition between the Pre-Parade Show and the main NBC telecast.
The float was retired after that year's procession and was disposed of sometime after.
