Ms
Take II
Oct 1977 to Feb 1979
2047 Marshall (a block east of Shepherd)

I
probably would not have set up this page, had not I been
given the above rare matchbook (Thank you, Nikki Thomsen!)
So that got me inspired to find what little there is about the club.
Apparently it was owned by Velvet & Linda...
Velvet is likely Velvet Sommers, from the first ad
And despite their advertising as "Houston's Only Quiet Woman's
Bar,"
I have to wonder how quiet all those female wrestling matches were.
1977



Velvet
Sommers as Queen Kong
1978


There
was competition for Women's Bars at that time, with
Our Place, Just Marion & Lynn's, Marion's Too, and the Lampost

1979

Of the
women's bars, only the Lampost and Just Marion & Lynn's were in
business a year later
