Here is an undated photo. Atlantic Book Shops was a chain with stores in Atlantic City and Ocean City. I bought cheap sci-fi paperbacks at the AC store for years:

This 1957 LA Times ad mentions a Belair Drive-In at the corner of Valley Blvd and Fontana. I’m not sure if they are referring to a Fontana Street or the city of Fontana. If anyone has heard of this drive-in, let me know:

This area between Rio city and Barra Tijuca has undergone extensive development in the past ten years – there are many more upscale restaurants, clubs and cinemas on the main avenue. Not that many years ago this part of Rio was mostly deserted.

Glad you enjoyed the photo. The “Sally” showing could have been a re-release. Do you still have the records for 1932 in your office?
