I took my mother to Salon Pure (formerly The Owl Barber Shop) a few years back. I didn't know of its history at the time :(. It is a really cool design that they have created with the exposed pipes, kind of a steam punk motif. It still screams Noir inside. If you can, get down there and check it out! Really cool place!

http://youtu.be/DDoYKLQhWKU Take the lighter stick out and press the tip down on the middle plunger. That activates the flint that lights the wick of the lighter stick. Ingenious and super noir. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...ps28248b1d.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...psfcdf9726.jpg |
...somewhere on Slauson Ave.
http://imageshack.us/a/img560/9113/dv3c.jpg http://east-of-west-la.tumblr.com/ I decided to search out this building. I found it on the 900 block of Slauson just west of South Central. http://imageshack.us/a/img6/842/6nx1.jpg gsv http://imageshack.us/a/img560/3536/t023.jpg There are long gone railroad spurs in the area. http://imageshack.us/a/img534/3301/ha7b.jpg google earth __ |

We've seen many photographs of the Brown Derby on Wilshire, but I don't remember one taken from this odd angle.

A wonderfully noirish photograph of the Fourth Street Bridge.
http://imageshack.us/a/img826/5351/jo4y.jpg http://east-of-west-la.tumblr.com/image/50426067982 I couldn't quite tell what part of the bridge I was looking at, so I backed the google-mobile out of the garage and headed for Fourth Street. This is the far west portion of the bridge where it crosses Mateo Street & Santa Fe Ave. http://imageshack.us/a/img607/9051/6dsr.jpg gsv http://imageshack.us/a/img822/821/3ld9.jpg gsv __ |

:hi: http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/show...ostcount=10291 :previous: Just a guess, the "6" may refer to an advertised interest rate, i.e., "6%." Modernly, it could be advertising the number of available parking spaces, or the average wait time (in hours) to obtain a parking space. No date or location. (Pea gravel or worn macadam?) http://jpg2.lapl.org/pics46/00057619.jpghttp://jpg2.lapl.org/pics46/00057619.jpg |
