This is Pico Boulevard a couple of blocks west of Alvarado. We're looking west on the section of Pico between Magnolia and S Westmoreland. From the 1969 CD (below), the "COFFEE SHOP" sign belonged to Sam's Coffee Shop, and the "PICO SQUARE" sign belonged to Pico Square Liquor. I'm guessing that the RCA truck may have been visiting G-G Record Distributors at 2360 Pico.

I believe that this is the old Coffee Shop sign from
e_r's picture, and the strip mall looks relatively unchanged too.

The building with the fancy brickwork on the right of
e_r's picture (under the "Find him" poster") also survives. The current graffiti paint scheme and signage makes it difficult to compare, so here's a view from 2011.
