Bullocks Pasadena

Sopas:
Please no offence, and I may be mistaken, but that wonderful old photo of the magnificent Bullock's Pasadena looks earlier than 1949 because of the cars. My memory was that the store dated from 1947, but according to Wikipedia, it was built in 1944. What a gorgeous eye-popper it must've been when it opened, absolutely the last word in sophisticated 1940's modern architecture. I remember it still being extremely classy in the 60's.
