How very odd.

ProphetM Santa Fe did not have a rail presence in Hollywood. However
they did have a Harvey House for their Santa Fe Trailways bus at 1735 Chauenga Boulevard.

However, I suspect it may be a movie prop as the lettering is extremely clean and sharp and even for wood period piece. Also, the logos are from an earlier period than the Harvey House. See
Tourmaline's post below.
