1942 Arthur Rothstein photos in Brownsville, Texas

1942 Arthur Rothstein - Charro Days fiesta, watching the children's parade, Brownsville, Texas
1942 E Levee St with sign for Gateway Bridge for Matamoros, Tamaulipas, Mexico from Brownsville, Texas.  This photo includes a rare view of Missouri Pacific Railroad station and El Jardin Hotel built in 1928.  The photo was taken during the annual Charro Days international celebration between Brownsville and Matamoros still held every February but bull fights in Matamoros are no longer part of the celebrating.
