Women in white outfits ride horseback through downtown Shamrock, Texas, carrying the U.S. and Texas flags during the St. Patrick's Day parade. Spectators line the sidewalks in front of storefronts, including Adams Hardware and a Philco sign. Shamrock, a Texas Panhandle town on old Route 66, calls itself "The Irish City" and draws thousands of visitors for the annual celebration, which the card identifies as "Irish Day."
