Here's another 1950s slide.

It's from the same seller that listed the two Wilshire Blvd. slides I posted last night.

I'm not sure if this one was taken from the Sheraton Town House...but, as you can see, the person taking the photograph was near the top of the builfing. (if I'm not mistaken the cornice is visible at upper right)



DETAIL

Does the Town House have wrought iron enclosed mini-areas outside some of the windows? (shown below)

red circle foreground and top right. (also circled)




And here's a closer look at the Ritchfield Sevice Station down below.


DETAIL

Hmmm...it looks a bit like the black and white photograph of the mystery gas station with the neon running man. (it was located somewhere along Wilshire)


This one.


We never figured out where, on Wilshire, this station was located.
