Great photos ken mc ! I was wondering if anyone else remembers the record store that was on the corner, before the cleaners was there?
This had to be in the late 50’s early 60’s.
This is so cool and brings back so many memories. We used to walk up to the Leimert Theater every Saturday . This was in the mid 50’s to early 60’s. We’d stop across the street at the Thrifty Drug store to buy candy. You could buy 3 candy bars for 10 cents and the larger size bars were 2 for 15 cents. Then back across the street, to where you refer to a Cleaners ( and is pictured in the photograph) but at that time it was a Record store. We saved our allownaces and bought the latest 45’s for under a buck each. I remember it cost 25 cents to get into the movies. And for that price, we got to see two movies, cartoons and even newsreels! Now THOSE were the “Good old Days”!
