HossC, thanks! Interesting! In the 1966 photo it appears that the street level sign has been removed, unless it's just not lit up and I can't make it out, and the neon roof sign has been redesigned--it looks like the design in the Van Nuys location.

As for the Christmas decorations in the 1960 photo, they sure look rather spindly compared to those forest of 15 foot (or was it 16) trees that used to line the street for the holidays.
