Notice the Malamute's floor. Guessing it is beach sand or sawdust since most pea gravel was reserved for gas stations.

LOL.......Unlikely it's beach sand, as the Malumute seems to be lacking in Trader Vic's/Tommy Bahama decor.

And certainly not pea gravel. Recall the filling stations used it all up, resulting in the Pea Gravel Shortage of the 1930s.

Sawdust. Many saloons used it, as it was both absorbent and easy to clean the mud n' the blood n' the beer every so often (just sweep it all out and apply a fresh layer).


Whatever happened to Love's on Pico?
google

All the Love's are history. The Pico location is now, in quintessential LA style, a parking lot for a limousine service.
