Here we can see the bar at Irving Thalberg’s beach house in Santa Monica beach, circa 1930. From what we can see, it looks delightfully art deco, but my first thought was “It’s rather small, considering whose bar it is.” Then I remembered, this is 1930, so Prohibition was still on—so why would anybody need a bar??? My 3^rd thought was: “Imagine which famous butts parked themselves on those bar stools!”
