I did not know that! Interesting. I wish my grandparents had taken more outside photos of LA. They got married after the war was over (my grandpa was a Marine). He would go watch her perform (she danced at a few places but Paris Inn the longest) and escort her home on the Red Car. They spent tons of time in downtown (and lived coincidentally a mile from where I am now in Silver Lake) and Hollywood. I'll have to get their photo albums to see if they have any interesting outside photos I can post.
