"Miracle Mile" section of Wilshire Blvd in the 1940s

Wilshire Blvd looking east through the Fairfax Ave intersection. We can see the May Company department store (now part of LACMA and future home of the Hollywood museum of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences), Coulters department store, and the Arthur Murray dance studio. This “Miracle Mile” stretch of Wilshire Blvd is busy now but back then it looks positively jam-packed!
