Shamrock Hotel - Houston TX - 1948 & 1949

The first half of these silent 16mm home movies show the cornerstone laying ceremony conducted by Glenn McCarthy. The second half is from March 17, 1949 for the grand opening of the hotel. Many Hollywood stars can be seen arriving. Can you identify them? Leave in the comments.

My great grandfather was the entertainment coordinator for this giant. I’ve found myself archiving thousands of pictures and documents! I love and miss you shamrock. Feel free to reach out to me
