I've been holding off posting this Julius Shulman photoset for about a week because I can't be sure it's in LA. This is
"Job 84: John Kewell, Zeeman's Clothing Co., 1947".
If only there'd been a street sign.
Both from
Getty Research Institute
The street light and streetcar tracks made me think it was LA, but the "State Highway 11" sign made me doubt it. The 1956 CD lists the Zeeman Clothing Co at 440 S Hill Street, and the 1951-1952 Long Beach CD lists a clothing company called Zeeman's of Long Beach at 416 Pine Avenue, so they definitely had a presence in LA, but the number above the door in the Shulman pictures is 601. Can anyone tell me where the building is/was.
