On the Boulevard...


On the Boulevard, Los Angeles, 1936

The Wiltern, St. James Episcopal, a row of Wilshire Specials and a couple of working stiffs shooting the breeze while the swells are inside putting on the feedbag. Super nice image of a Chrysler Air Flow doubling up as they pick-up...

A couple of good-looking dames and beautiful signage...



On the Boulevard, Los Angeles, 1936 (3)

Passersby, a seemingly delighted window-shopper and the height of mid-thirties commercial fonts...



On the Boulevard, Los Angeles, 1936 (4)

More Wilshire specials, Morgan Flowers on the corner of S. Gramercy Place and two more for lunch...

and a chauffeur going for the car or looking for some shade...



On the Boulevard, Los Angeles, 1936 (8)

Mr. & Mrs. Nick Charles and Asta for lunch. Man's best friend needs to eat, too and this is our best look at The Bachelors' signage...



On the Boulevard, Los Angeles, 1936 (13)

and more of the waiting game, wondering if he's got enough time for another cigarette...
