1902 - 228-230 Aliso
1906 - 801 Lyon
1912 - 226 N Los Angeles
1914 - 1516 Industrial
1917 - 631 San Fernando
The Monarch Sign Co was at 306 Boyd.

Thanks for all the help, guys!
(but I'm in a bit of a dither)
If I want to search for the school (and garden) that was located near the macaroni factory, as shown in the ebay photograph, which location would you suggest I use?
As a reminder, a stamp on the back of the photo is dated July 17, 1923. . .but an earlier stamp, that I just now noticed, is dated March 14th 1918....LINK
P.S....Since there aren't any schoolgirls in the photograph maybe the garden project was sponsored by an all-boys school. . .or even a reform school. (?)
