The above undated photo was in the LAPL images with scant information except it's from the Herald Examiner collection of photographs.
Dodgers of yesteryear welcomed to L.A., opening day, April 18, 1958.
Another photo I looked at shows the Los Angeles Theatre (in the background of photos above and below) is advertising Tab Hunter and Etchika Choureau in Lafayette Escadrille, and also: Stakeout on Dope Street.
