    Krash,
    I just looked that intersection up on google map. You would never be able to tell it was once the classic home of Harold Hughes Used Cars. My dad was born (1932) and grew up in a house on the corner of Wilshire & Sycamore. Used to ride his bike to Farmers Market and Gilmore Stadium. Those were the good ol days of LA. Gone forever.

    This early-1960s image contains Fred King Motors LTD located at “Kings Corner” in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada, at 11th and 3rd Ave. South in what appears to be a converted house. It appears that only used cars are on display here, so new car sales may have been handled elsewhere.

    The dealership was established in 1948, and was celebrating its fifth anniversary. The image is dated to September 10, 1953, by the source and may have included leftover cars brought in for a sale before the remodeled 1954 models arrived late in the year.

    Maybe she’s planning on feeding her family to the White Bangle Tiger.
