Clark Hotel Images in the Portal of Texas History


Several years ago, our Texas Mountain Trail organization wrote a grant that digitized the photograph collection of Van Horn's Clark Hotel Museum.

This is one of those images of everyday life from the 1940s, and we're not sure about the location or the event, but it is clear that cake was served!  We like to wonder about the gentleman who put his hat on the post.
