Frustratingly, the name of Chester's movie isn't included in the information.
Is anyone a Chester Conklin fan? I thought you might know the name of the film.
(1930 seems a bit late for a silent movie)

“Chester Conklin is out on a beam atop the newly completed Guaranty Bldg at Hollywood Blvd and Ivar in “Cleaning Up” (Paramount, 1930). We see the vertical of the Pantages on the left and the Music Box Theatre further down the street. The image appears on page 35 of the Arcadia Publishing book "Location Filming in Los Angeles" by Karie Bible, Marc Wanamaker and Harry Medved. The page with the photo is included in the books preview on Google Books.”
