The old garage is on the right side of the Subway Terminal Service Building, with trompe l'oeil above it, but there is also now a garage on the left side as well, and more trompe l'oeil. There are our painters, on the left.

Here's another shot, taken from 4th St. just east of Hill:

Thanks for the correction, ProphetM. I concentrated my attention on the rear of the building and didn't realize that the mural continued to the front. It's good to know that the painters are still there.

Another quick "then and now".

Luther's Automotive Service at 1212 W Slauson, seen here in 1933.

Slauson Auto Restoration at 1212 W Slauson, seen here in 2011. The window on the left has been boarded up, but I think it's the same building.
