Grauman's Chinese #40 -- July 24, 2014


In July, 2012 we paid a return visit to Hollywood and Grauman's Chinese Theater. Sid Grauman was a San Francisco showman who came to Los Angeles and built three major houses, the Million Dollar, the Egyptian, and the Chinese. The theater has hosted many film premieres, but is most famous for the hand and footprints (and hoofprints and nose prints and other types of prints) in the forecourt.

Beautiful actress Jean Harlow left her handprints, footprints and three mysterious dots on 29-September-1933.  She died at the age of 26 in 1937.
