Grauman's Chinese Theater opened in 1927. 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. The first 15 entries in this series showed some of them:

I'm sad to say this is the last entry in the series, at least until our next visit to Hollywood. I took this photo on 18-July-2009.
It started to rain today.
