Hollywood Crime Scnes: The Procurement Of Minors: Lee's Drugstore and The Gold Cup

The girls just off the bus got picked up at the fountain on Hollywood and Highland. All major Hollywood Book was made out of the same establishment.


A different kind of same kind of place was The Gold Cup coffee shop at Las Palmas and Hollywood. The neighborhood teemed with 15 and 16 year old boys who ran away before "someone found out." Since they couldn't get in bars, it was the Gold Cup For them. (But the boys had it better off...They got to keep their whole $5 isntead of split it with a pimp!

How Hollywood: The Hays Office Established To Keep Sleazy People Away From Hollywood, Ends Up Being Owned By Eddie Nash!

The JUST restored Mary Moll building. It may NOW be recognized as the background in the famous Buster Keaton film Sherlock Jr. when the projectionist steps into the movie screen.





You'll have to follow the links for the rest of the info...This is a VERY important building.

I Would add that if Hays had done his job, I wouldn't have been running all over the City for six months photographing Hollywood Crime Scenes, with TONS more to go!

Helpful Hollywood Tourist Hint: Finding The Hollywood Sign

Look around for bright yellow signs reading "NO Access To The HOLLYWOOD SIGN," then follow them, one by one, and they will lead you directly to The Hollywood Sign.

Hill People split me. Imagine People on Hollywood Boulevard puting in signs reading "Graman's Chinese Theatre Located On Santa Monica Blvd." because they wanted to live near The Chinese, but they wanted to throw everyone else off.

My Favorite Fire Escapes In The World: The Louis B. Mayer Building, Breen Office

Unfortunately, the beautiful building was named after one of the most loathsome individuals in Hollywood History (and that is saying A LOT), and was used to house a censorship office! Good looks can only get you so far...

The Oldest Stereoscope Of Hollywood I Can Find Is Of: Tourists On The Boulevard

Well, slightly off the Boulevard. Here, fat Iowans in fanny packs (or maybe bustles) gawk at Paul De Longpre's flower garden (Hollywood and Wilcox) in winter, c. 1903. At least then they didn't travel thousands of miles to stare at the sidewalk.

Kratona Hill: Before There Were Movies There Was The Occult

And everyone knows if you're in to mystic religions you have to have "exotic" architecture...It helps drive away your case of the Blah-vatskys! Many of these little slices of Palestine were built in Hollywood before movies even came to town. Appearantly "Do As Thou Wilt Shall Be The Whole Of Good Taste" as well.

Many movie stars came to this home to have their horoscopes cast.
