"The" Laurel Station on Laurel Canyon also sold Hercules Gasoline in 1923.

Then (1931) and now of the Vanowen and Laurel Canyon intersection here: https://hereinvannuys.wordpress.com/...l-canyon-1931/ https://hereinvannuys.files.wordpres...ge_1.jpg?w=984 https://hereinvannuys.files.wordpres...ge_5.jpg?w=984https://hereinvannuys.files.wordpres..._371.png?w=984https://hereinvannuys.files.wordpres..._371.png?w=984 Suffice it to say, the provincial signage may be of interest to those with a poor sense of direction. Which way to United (Burbank/Bob Hope) Airport? Hand painted folk art doubtlessly engendered a sense of extreme confidence in the nascent air transport industry. Commissioned by the railroads? Painted by a grounded pilot? :no: :no: http://i357.photobucket.com/albums/o...l.jpg~originalUSCDigital This way to Chatsworth and . . . heaven?

Van Nuys and Roscoe - Panorama City

This is the corner of Van Nuys and Roscoe. There used to be a Bob's Big Boy in that location as well. Boy has it changed! https://www.google.com/maps/place/83...34b46d!6m1!1e1 This is a link for a pic of that corner in the 60's. You can see the corner on the right, just below the Golds sign... http://waterandpower.org/5%20Histori...Mall_1960s.jpg |
I just found this annotated snapshot from the 1940s.
Someone has pointed out their upstairs apartment at 249 N. Larchmont Blvd. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/128...910/3LuMMB.jpg http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vtg-1940s-19...YAAOSwk1JWgeoJ The building stills stands on the southwest corner, minus the architectural ornament around the door. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/102...633/k1FKiM.jpg gsv :previous: Do you think the arched doorway was added, or was it beneath the 'facade' of the Christian Science Reading Room? __ |
This also caught my eye.
What the heck is a Gyroducing Salon? (and why is it in this person's living room?) http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/102...907/H42onQ.jpg detail / eBay Well, I was only able to dig up this photograph (so far). http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800...907/YXpXIY.jpg http://www.amazon.com/Post-Card-Gyro.../dp/B012Y8KC94 |

This was just posted on Photos of Los Angeles on Facebook. It's a lovely photograph of The NBC Radio Studio in Hollywood.
http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h1...ps6hoednjw.jpg Oh, and Jane Mansfield and her daughter, actress Mariska Hargitay. |
Thanks for all the follow-ups on Hody's. I wonder why there are no other good pictures of this site.

http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...1.jpg~original Detail of picture in USC Digital Library The corner house isn't visible in the 1952 image, but the next three houses are still standing in recognizable form. I had to go back a few years to get this view that wasn't blocked by trees. http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...2.jpg~original GSV PS. BifRayRock - could you please include real links to the USC images you post, rather than turning a credit into a link to a non-existent website. I had to spend five minutes searching for the image above when I could've been there in a single click! |
Does anyone recognize the location in this photograph from eBay?
It appears to be along the edge of Bunker Hill (the seller places the date as 1910). http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/128...905/JIr5dN.jpg http://www.ebay.com/itm/Photo-ca-191...MAAOSwYHxWOsl6 -I find it interesting that the house closest to the camera is so much lower than the other houses. That said, I sure wish there was more information on this photograph. I'd love to know what organization these fine looking ladies belonged to. The mesh that covers the horses is also interesting. __ |

The photograph is part of the CHS Collection in the USC Digital Library. Here's the information they provide with the picture: Title |

I think that may be Cathedral High School.

Thanks for correcting the street address from Larchmont to Lucerne. (Original post has been corrected as such.) Once the source planted the Larchmont “seed,” all it took was a picture of rain water to grow the idea. The mistaken “then and now” differences made it all too easy to imagine long-gone apartments or duplexes. Too bad about the iconic palm trees though. I guess they overstayed their welcome. Looking for any connection with a street car line that once ran on Larchmont was also perplexing, but it was assumed it must have been underwater. :) :shrug: For more on Larchmont's street cars: http://www.larchmontbuzz.com/uncateg...t-at-gramercy/ and http://www.larchmontbuzz.com/larchmo...oto-from-1950/ (I believe some of these photos have been on NLA.) |
