Union Pacific Railroad Photo, image found on https://www.american-rails.com/challenger.html Back in Streamliner days, and before, the UP offered connecting bus service from their East Los Angeles station to Glendale, Anaheim, and Long Beach/San Pedro. Buses are the GM PD4101. More information and photos can be found on my TrainWatchersJournal blog: https://trainwatchersjournal.blogspo...a-getaway.html |
re: Los Pastores
Thanks for sharing the reminiscences of Don Arturo Bandini with us odinthor.
Quote:
"Just over 100 years ago(?), the Hidalgo Club, a Mexican mutual aid society, revived La Pastorela for performances in several halls in the Plaza area." "In 1883, the Los Angeles Herald reported that Los Pastores was so popular that another performance was given in February at Turnverein Hall on Figueroa St." kcet https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/8...924/Ugayi6.jpg ____________________________________ sidenote: "Boys under 12 years, - 25 cnt" Why just boys and not girls? :shrug: and in this recollection by Bandini (on the Los Pastores in 1861) "Rancheros and townsmen patronized the numerous booths that had been set up for the occasion. The air was filled with the cries of the vendors of tamales, enchiladas, tortillas, candy, and fruit, as well as with the twanging of guitars, the shrieking of violins, and the voices of singers." Only the rancheros and townsmen are mentioned. What about the women and children? __ |

I assume its a long standing Latino cultural thing but in many places only the boys have to pay for entry....the girls are welcome and don't pay anything. It appears that the older males have to pay 75 cnts. This also is the norm in certain adult social situations....:rolleyes: |

http://www.lafire.com/stations/FS003..._crew_1500.gifThey're in front of the 1901 station at 217 S Hill St that was replaced by the larger 1924 station. Lots of photos (including the one above) about Station 3 here. And yes, the KritMCCo was short lived; that's a rare car. |
The 3 story building left of center resembles the Clifton's building in shape and size, though the the windows are different. Clifton's opened in 1932. The location seems about right. Could it possibly be???

I found the building which is on the left. It was painted by Leo Politi, photographed by William Reagh and also by someone else. It was located on the south side of Clay Street, to the right of the Brown Apartments. There is another picture on Noirish LA on page 1965. |

"Orig 1960's Los Angeles Roseland Roof Hostess Building CA Street 35mm Five neg Lot"
#1 https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...924/IDiI2t.jpg ebay as most of you know, the Roseland Roof bldg. still stands. & if I remember correctly, the garage on the left edge of the photograph used to be a ballroom at one point in time. I don't recall the name at the moment. #2 https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...922/syxmaN.jpg ebay I haven't figured out this modern plaza/building. did you notice how the photograph makes the Occidental Center look like it's in the midst of the other large buildings (it's actually farther south) right? #3 https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...922/R4U3YA.jpg total mystery to me. #4 https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...922/xh1CzW.jpg ditto (no idea) #5 https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...924/is6itR.jpg mystery. here's a closer look at that building down the street. https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/6...924/MrhBy3.jpg detail #5 at first I thought it was a bank...but now I think it might be a garage. All from ebay (sold together) |
