Looking north up Vine Street from south of Sunset Blvd, Hollywood, 1955

Looking north up Vine Street from south of Sunset Blvd, Hollywood, 1955Driving up Vine Street just after dusk in 1955 offered Hollywoodites a streetscape of bright neon lights. Standing south of Sunset you could see the lights for NBC Studios, The Broadway Hollywood department store, Plaza Hotel, ABC Studios, and Wallichs Music City advertising their “Self Service Records.” On the block south of Sunset, we can see a billboard for “Panorama Pacific” which was a magazine style program on KNXT Channel 2 from 1952 to 1964.
