Close to Sunset High School on Jefferson Boulevard, the Vogue Theatre is listed in editions of Film Daily Yearbook from at least 1950. It screened second run, independent movies, beach, monster, and B movies. It was boys night out in the 1960's for high schoolers and date night for suburban teens who couldn't go all the way downtown.

This site claims that the Vogue was also called the Bison:

I saw True Grit and The Cowboys here for certain. Two of my brothers attended High School at Sunset.

Did they change the sign from Jesus back to Vogue in the mid 80s? That's what the later 80s photos seem to indicate.

The March 21, 1949, issue of Boxoffice Magazine said that the Vogue Theatre opened on March 21 with an invitation-only event for 500 guests. The public opening took place the following night, and the feature film "Blood on the Moon" was shown to a full house.

The Vogue was built by the Robb & Rowley circuit. The theater was in an entirely new building designed by the architectural firm of H.F. Pettigrew & Associates, but was located on the site of the 600-seat Bison Theatre which had been demolished to make way for the new house.
