There were 2 car dealerships that I can remember. There was the one at 19th on Pacific… a Ford dealership that started with an S. Then there was one on 17th and Pacific that had cars showing in a big window. I remember seeing the cars in that window and wishing I could have one. The Ballet School on 12th/Pacific use to be a furniture store. On 13th use to be Rexall drug store where we’d go in and get malts and shakes.

My mom and dad met at the Globe when she was a young lass. She said she went to see a movie by Tyrone Power’s Blood and Sand there. When I saw the picture I kind of remember it… but I mostly remember the Strand and Cabrillo on 7th St. I will post there as well. As a teen I would hang out mostly at the Warner Fox on 6th near Pacific.

I remember the San Pedro Drive-in. I use to have alot of fun there. I remember when I was younger my mom and dad use to take us (myself, sister. We’d stop by McDonald’s first and they would buy 10 hamburgers for $1.00. That’s right! 10 for just $1.00. Now you wouldn’t catch me eating that stuff. Anyway, we’d head off to the theatre and have fun.

I remember one time we went to see “Psycho” when it first came out there. I laughed so hard when my mom said we were going to watch peace-co. I couldn’t figure out what she said. I also remember when I use to work at the snack bar. Didn’t do that for long. I knew too many kids that wanted free stuff. Wouldn’t do it. However, I did use to sneak a bunch in my car trunk. It was funny at the time when I saw all the kids coming out of my trunk.

Gone are the days of 2 moves for the price of 1.
