The other address given for a Vogue billboard was on Wilshire near Mansfield. (Conveniently located near Lou Ehler's Cadillac.) Can't readily locate it on this thread, but I thought there was a posting of another Wilshire and Mansfield billboard. Similar moldings to those in the 1935 images?
Wilshire and Mansfield, unk. date

1930 Looking east on Wilshire near Mansfield. Forget the water, notice the Chrysler billboard.

Address for the Prospect 6159 number in the '35 billboard is illusive. A listing for Vogue Tyres in '56, the year of the Corvette billboard, is for 1323 S. Flower.
