AIDS Vigil after International Mr. Leather 1991, with winner D. Cannon. Photo from the IML collection at the LA&M. #IML #LeatherCommunity

A large group of men walk down the center of a city street in Chicago holding candles. In the foreground, some of them carry a large leather pride flag with Canadian maple leaf symbols, held horizontal by four men at each corner. The owner of International Mr. Leather 1991, D Cannon, walks directly behind the flag wearing his sash. It appears to be a cloudy afternoon.
