Description
Taking part in a mammoth parade prior to the first showing of "My Friend Irma Goes West" were comedians Dean Martin, left, and Jerry Lewis. Their humorous stunts drew rounds of laughter from the crowd. An estimated 10,000 persons from Clark County, augmenting other thousands of Las Vegans, jammed the city for the premiere on July 28, 1950.
