Piggly meets Wiggly. (Awfully busy when the middle of the image is removed!)



More complete version



I've gotta tell you that these are some great images of Pico Boulevard heading east. I was particularly interested in te California Fireproof Storage Building which I grew up knowing as LYON MOVING & STORAGE. Today, I believe, it is part of the Public Storage chain, but I'll have to check that out the next time I am over there. Also, one interesting point is that the street lighting, for the most part is still there. Those cast iron dual torch "acorns" are still servicing the area though many of them are dark on a regular basis. Chin/E-54
