Austin Scenery (1955) - R. Niles Graham Collection

This silent home movie captures colorful, scenic views of Austin in 1955. The footage first looks out over the city from Mount Bonnell, with the UT Tower and Texas State Capitol Building dominating the skyline. Mother, daughter, and son, dressed smartly, pose for the camera. A change of location brings the family to Lake Travis, where the children excitedly watch the boats.
