I don't have any answers (yet), but here's a little more info.
Nancy's and Mimi's are listed at 6340 and 6366 Hollywood Boulevard respectively in the 1942 CD (they appear as Nancy's Dress Shop and Mimi's Dress Shop). 6340 is immediately east of Ivar Avenue.
Meanwhile, in the 1938 CD (the nearest after the 1937 screengrab below), 6366 Hollywood Boulevard was home to a women's clothing store called Betty Blanc & Co. Also in the 1938 CD, 6340 Hollywood Boulevard was the address of I Magnin & Co. The Hollywood Citizen Stationery Store in the screengrab below is right where we'd expect it at 6362 Hollywood Boulevard. They managed to get the phone number Hollywood 1234. That doesn't explain how Nancy's shows up in a 1937 movie in a location where it won't be listed until about 20 years later.
