My mother was living at 116 South Hope when I was born in 1934...at the time it was a shelter for young unmarried women with child. |

Well-dressed children on a bench in St. James Park, Los Angeles, 1909.
http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/102...922/pdiJw6.jpg Los Angeles Herald-September 12, 1909. Wouldn't it be interesting to know the identities of the children. My eye keep returning to the girl in white at the end of the bench on the left. Is it just me, or does she appear rather aloof? _ |

crittendon home
those black and white images of the crittendon home are amazing. I drove by today and saw a plaque saying something about renovations and additions being done in the 50s. these photos were definitely taken before the addition of the new wing. cool stuff!

I wonder who the kids are too--the aloof girl as well as the Little Lord Fauntleroys at center. (What the hell have they got on?) Maybe they're Clarks (who lived at 9 St. James Park, as well as next door to that) or occupants of the 1900 house behind the palm, which I would say is 24 St. James Park: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/Rx...Y=w640-h441-no More on St. James Park here Could the palm even still stand? In the GSV below, 24 SJP would have been more or less to the left of where the trees at right are; could the palm behind the kids possibly be one of the two to the left of the stop sign?... https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/uk...Q=w833-h435-no |

Otis: I entirely agree with you that the show might have survived if it kept to its original premise, but without Roger Smith or Edd Byrnes--doubtful. It was already losing audience in its fifth season. Those characters were necessary to offset the older, more austere countenance of Efrem Zimblist, Jr. |

Well, it's a '48 Packard rather than a '49 ('48 being the first of the "pregnant" Packards, due to its tubbiness), but who's counting? Did not know that Gloria was born in Pasadena, where as a child her parents rented 620 S Grand Avenue--which is hard to see here, but it looks like an interesting house: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/wN...0=w938-h647-no https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/jK...=w1146-h647-no |
