Don't wanna be morbid but I think that's a great pic.

Hehe and I don't know if it's "font" or "fount," I've actually seen it both ways. But naah, I've read a lot over the years and continue to look things up on the internet regarding old Los Angeles. I have books like "Haunted Hollywood" and "California Babylon," among others, where I get a lot of information from..
