Is this the famous 'Tail O' the Cock' on La Cienega Blvd (restaurant row),
or is it the 'Tail O' the Cock in the San Fernando Valley?

Thanks
Hoss. The two
are very similar in their designs.

UPDATE:
I just came across this photograph of
'The Black Sleep' stars having lunch.

Let's take a closer look at Tor's menu
Yep, Tail O' the Cock
TOR'S MENU
The evergreens outside the window in the luncheon photo make me think the
Valley more than
La Cienega Blvd.
Also....the trees (outside the window) are somewhat similar to the trees shown in front of the valley Tail O the Cock. (refer to color postcard #2)

update #2
I just read that the La Cienega
'Tail O' the Cock was extensively decorated at Christmas time. (at times there was even a live Santa on the roof!)
Could the 'trees out the window' be seasonal decorations? I ask, because it looks like there's 'snow' out that window too.
(or is it my imagination playing tricks on me again

)
