All Hail The "King of Obscure Detail"

As someone who lives nearly 3000 miles away from LA (and who has never had the pleasure of visiting your city) I absolutely love the drama of old LA. I am usually more interested in the forgotten souls who shaped, built, influenced, or simply inhabited the city. So when I saw the newspaper article posted by GaylordWilshire about the tragic ambulance accident, I started to look for histories of the people involved.

While checking on the lives of the various people listed in the article, I came across the unfortunate notice of Mr. John M. Nickerson. The article mentions his address as 818 S. Bonnie Brae Street. By weird chance, ethereal reality posted a pic of his address just 2 pages ago. Ethereal reality mentioned the quirky style of the 3rd floor roof area. Gotta love it!

Huge city, small world.

BTW....Merry Christmas to everyone here. (No politically correct "Happy Generic Holiday or Non-Holiday" BS here). Peace, good health, and good will to all of you and your loved ones.
