This is a treasure (to me) for a number of reasons including a clear aerial shot of Grauman’s and a view I’ve never seen before – the western side to the Hollywood Hotel. Look how built-up Hollywood was circa 1930 and peppered with lots of trees! Wonder what the building with the flag is? You can also see a streetcar, I believe called “red cars” in those days? Another great portrait of Hollywood in its Golden Age. Thank you, Martin! Jean
