Dome Theater, Dome Hotel Ocean Park California:
Wow I started out to write a brief note to my grandchildren about the late 1940’s when I lived I a old Hotel (the Dome) how we had a Dumbwaiter in the kitchen, whatever had been below was blocked off but it still worked we could pull ourselves up and down via the ropes still in place.
Looking at the picture the 2d floor windows are the room/apartments ours was on the other side of the Dome a one bedroom, large living room with pull down from the wall bed, Kitchen between with an ice box and pull down from the wall table. My father was a bookmaker on the front, and I had an almost full cart blanch every where! Theater free, Rides Free, some of the concessions even slips me a quarter or so to shill.
All in all it made for magical memories.
