I bought this photo at a bookstore last weekend. There’s no source or date, but it looks like the next building down has the number 525, so I have a hunch this is our place:

Do I have to buy the shoes if I go to the movie?

I guess she didn’t actually paint it. Her gallery is selling the painting.

The mall adjacent to the theater is for sale. You can see the theater on the left if you enlarge the photo.

Do you see the Vine Street Brown Derby across the street? I actually ate there just before it burned down in the mid 80s. The place was pretty shabby by that time.

So Mr. Stivers was the one that bought the hand truck.

Maybe Deuce Bigalow did them in.

This theater doesn’t show up on the B& B site now. I’ve seen it referred to as both the Coffeyville Family Theater and the Coffeyville Cinema. There may have been a change of ownership sometime in the past three years.

I just went there for fun. Perhaps if I was exposed on a daily basis, I might have had a different opinion, but to me it was always an enjoyable time in the city.

I was looking at Ed Solero’s photo of 9/6/07, and it really brought back memories of Times Square in the 70s and 80s. Although most of the theaters showed porn and there were hookers everywhere, to me that’s what the big city was like. I preferred that to the Guliani/Disney Times Square of today. I think a city should have a little grit.

Sorry, the LAPL captioned that for the Wilshire. Thanks for the correction.

I wonder what the color was when it was a porn house? Not that bright green, I assume.

kencmcintyre commented about Huntridge Performing Arts Theatre on Oct 6, 2008 at 11:39 pm

You’re assuming we all live in Nevada and can vote in your election.

kencmcintyre commented about Beale Street Cinema on Oct 6, 2008 at 11:27 pm

I recall from reading Thomas Hauser’s 1990 biography that Ali signed deals for restaurants, clothing lines, even a Muhammad Ali car. This might have been one of those deals.
