Houston
Gay Pride Week 1979
Page 2

These photos were borrowed from the Botts Collection, and then digitized,
and are the first ones in color I have seen of this event. They were taken
by Larry Butler. I need some help in identifying many of the people in them
which is why they are numbered. If you can ID someone, please
email me
with the name and photo number. Thanks!
