   Look at that bored blonde, and her date (hubby?) is so animated. Those 2 guys to the right, they know the photog, I’m thinking. Oh, who are these people? Wow, just wow.

   I wonder what the small KFWB banner signifies. Based on the city lights view out the window to the left of the banner, the restaurant must have been on a hill or at the top of a tall building.

     Good spotting with the city lights, PDQ. I suspect you may be right. KFWB was the call letters for a radio station started by Sam Warner (as on ‘Warner Bros’) so maybe they were broadcasting from the nightclub that night, the way they used to do a lot, esp from the Cocoanut Grove at the Ambassador Hotel.

       Makes sense. I tend to think of KFWB as the “You give us 22 minutes, we’ll give you the WORLD” news station that it has been (until the last year or two). Now I understand it’s been bought by a company that runs Asian stations, so the current all-sports format is soon to be gone.
