OK, experts, gather round and help me out! One evening this past week I watched a silent film called
The Garden of Eden. Included on the DVD was a fascinating 1927 short called
Hollywood the Unusual that showcased several examples of the kind of exotic and wacky architecture (residences, apartment buildings, and businesses) to be found in and around Hollywood in the late 1920s. A few were familiar, but most I had never seen before.
I made almost 40 frame grabs but will post just a small handful here. If anyone can offer information on any of these buildings, including locations, I'd greatly appreciate it!
