This photo, dated 1979, was included in a 2016 Los Angeles Times article about the death of its photographer, John Margolies. The photo credit in the article was “(John Margolies/courtesy Taschen Books)”.

There is a very similar photo, also dated 1979, in the John Margolies Roadside America photograph archive of the Library of Congress, Prints and Photographs Division. That photo, from the same angle, includes more shadows covering the San Pedro sign, though not the screen mural. It’s available here, and is effectively in the public domain.
