Very similar indeed. They seem very odd for Los Angeles.

I realize that we've 'visited' Ms. Bow's It Cafe several times on the thread, but I believe these photographs are new to NLA.

Not fond of "it"
Quote:
Clara Bow originally opened the cafe, with her husband Rex Bell (Clara Bell?), as a project to keep her mind off the miscarriage she recently had suffered. She was going to be there on a regular basis, but within a couple weeks of opening she was pregnant again. She was terrified of losing another child so she took to bed. Phil Selznick bought the IT Cafe sometime after they closed it. --"Runnin' Wild' by David Stenn (page 250) The academy (AMPAS) showed footage once of Clara Bow holding court with the press one night at the "IT" Cafe and signing some autographs for fans and customers. Now--what is Chilled Ozone? |

E_R wow - thanks for that post. I hadn't come up with anything so far. As for the 8846 Sunset Blvd. address. The Viper Room is 8852 and going east the liquor store next to it (Temer's) is 8850. Then there's Larrabee Street and then the site of where Tower Video (across the street from Tower records) was located. Currently unoccupied. They had an address of 8844. Unless there's something to the right of the photo, I'm guessing Bublichki was on the corner of Sunset and Larrabee Street. Can anyone read that sign on the left? At first I thought it said something about Thanksgiving and wondered what a Russian Thanksgiving meal would consist of. Also, that address doesn't seem like there'd be room to park cars in front of it? Maybe it's built sideways. |
Coincidence?
SIDEBAR:
It just occurred to me, and I checked to verify this, in the I Love Lucy episode "Ricky Asks for a Raise" where Ethel, Fred and Lucy dress up as different people (including Fred in drag) so they can cancel their reservations to show how popular Ricky Ricardo is, that in one of these scenes Ethel plays a Russian Countess and Lucy calls her "Countess Bublichki" !!! |

http://www.laparks.org/images/facili...thSeahouse.jpg About the other house you found on 24th & Arlington, I think it's been covered on Noirish before, but it was built in 1902 for Joseph Dupuy. You're right, it's now owned by the city and operated as a recreation center, and now known as the "South Seas House." More info to be found here. |

Last night I went looking for some of the places on e_r's recent "Los Angeles Life Fun Map". My search led me to YouTube and to one of Alison Martino's videos titled Los Angeles in the 1940s. Here are a few screengrabs. The second half of the video concentrates on various Brown Derby locations.
Edit: The YouTube video is now showing as private. It seems to have been a compilation of videos at The Producers Library which are still available: Sarnez and Ollie Hammond's Steak House Farmer's Market Stores Brown Derby Bamboo Room http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...1.jpg~original YouTube Another of Alison Martino's videos, Restaurant exteriors 1940, shows several more of the locations on e_r's map, and a few others. Edit: This video is also private. The relevant videos at The Producers Library are: Lawry's, Romanoff's, Bob Dalton's, Richlor's and Henry's Tail of the Cock Bit of Sweden and Ciro's Sphinx Club and Mocambo Chasen's La Rue Hostess House Smorgasbord NB. The images in these videos appear to have been cropped compared to the video which was on YouTube. http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...2.jpg~original http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...3.jpg~original YouTube While I was looking through the videos, I came across a short black & white film called Hollywood Blvd / Glory Days. At about 50 seconds in, the camera passes Coffee Dan's (the neon arrows can be seen strobing): http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...ffeeDansBW.jpg YouTube I tried to find out something about Somerset House (just above Ollie Hammond's on the map), but Google kept showing me pictures of its namesake building in London. I did find this matchbook of Somerset House in Riverside. http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...ASomerset1.jpg Ebay The photo below came with no indication of location. It looks quite similar to the building on the matchbook, but maybe the one near Ollie Hammond's looked something like this too. http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/z...2.jpg~original Ebay |
