Mac, at far right, looks like he might be the money man............................................................
The name of the sign shop is the ' Park Sign Shop' (this could be why the seller thinks the photos were taken somewhere in Huntington Park)
below: The second photo shows only Fred and Andy.

Here are some more Park Sign Co photos I found. There was no large version of the first one. It gives the names Lewis Lauter (?) Mott and Wilbur Russ.
At least the next two come with a location - 55th and Alameda.
All images from eBay
This looks like the same place.

I also found two images of the Huntington Sign Shop. The first shows their truck.
The second appears to show the shop. I drew a blank with 6201 Rita Street, but there is a Rita Avenue in Huntington Park. I didn't find anything recognizable from these photos.
Both images from eBay
