Beginning in 1928, a one-mile stretch of Hollywood Blvd between Vine St and La Brea Ave transformed into in “Santa Claus Lane.” This atmospheric shot was taken during the holiday season of 1933 on a rainy night when the wet road gave the image an almost film-noir texture. The two towers of the Warner Brothers radio station, KFWB, on top of their theater really stand out. Those triangles were electrified metallic Christmas trees, and that large circular thing on the left had the portrait of a movie star in the middle. It sure must have been a delight to walk down Hollywood Blvd that time of year.
