I’ve never been inside this theater in the 23 years I’ve been in LA. I guess silent films are not my thing.

First name Cuff.

kencmcintyre commented about Strand Theatre on Dec 5, 2007 at 5:19 pm

There are addresses on buildings on both sides, though. The house on the right looks like 25.

I can’t tell either.

kencmcintyre commented about Scala Cinema on Dec 5, 2007 at 5:17 pm

I think ouef is either “egg” or “nothing” so maybe “tout n'oeuf” means “all or nothing'?

Maybe the theater address is 23 Nelson. I don’t know.

The Arirang Restaurant is currently located at 23 Nelson. 15 Nelson is a post office, so something is amiss. Perhaps someone local has more information on this.

kencmcintyre commented about Hippodrome Theater on Dec 5, 2007 at 2:41 pm

Joe, I thought the 1907 photo was interesting. The Hotel Leonide building is still standing, a hundred years later. The building on the east side a bit north (with the turret) was the post office.
