Here's a second image. . . .this time in color.

As a reminder:

The Steve Allen Playhouse was initially the La Mirada Theater (located on the southeast corner of Vine St. & La Mirada) and for many years it was known as the Filmarte Theater. (shown below on the right)


losangelestheaters This is a repeat image on NLA



The famous Hollywood Ranch Market was next door (to the north / across La Mirada) so Steve Allen would often do skits at the market. (or, as you can see, in front of the market)

In this next one I think he's doing a spoof of the AJAX commercial.

I was born in 1960 so I don't remember The New Steve Allen Show. (or for that matter the original Steve Allen Show)




I'll end with this sweet snapshot from Alison's site.
