eBay "When the yacht 'Sultana' first steamed away from the shipyards, it had cost $1,000,000. That was in 1921. Two years ago John P. Mills, realty operator, above, bought it for $50,000. Yesterday United States Marshall Al Sittel sold it at auction for $6,025 to satisfy a judgment. The new owner, Fred L. Roberts, Santa Monica merchant, may use it to haul groceries from San Pedro." 1/26/33 http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640...537/Egef7G.jpg |

I came across this yesterday afternoon on eBay.
"1939 Slot Machines Marble Games Confiscated Destroyed Police Photo Los Angeles CA" http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/xq90/673/tBN3zR.jpg eBay :previous: Does anyone have an idea where this photograph might have been taken? The biggest clue is the bridge (viaduct) in the upper right corner. Think what those machines would be worth today. hint: A fortune! |

__ Hollywood Girl sent me this photograph last week. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800...910/gZRvkI.jpg courtesy of Hollywood Girl "Furniture, Uundertaking", does this mean they simply made wood coffins -or did they do the embalming as well? The name in the window is a bit hard to read, but I think it says Ryan & Co. __ |
