I was just wondering about the autograph slabs aloud to some tour guests the other day. Would love to know if they survived. I do know that they were still on the building up until the mid-late 60s.<br /><br />Robby, would love to have you (and all your readers) come on the tour.<br /><br />felixinhollywoodtours.comPhilip Mershonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05641146738422887485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8943857813487857438.post-4680509483614573702011-01-22T07:45:21.444-08:002011-01-22T07:45:21.444-08:00VP81955, Thanks for the links!

The Earl Carroll Theatre also had a clever way of displaying their neon sign at night - the THEATRE part would flash EAT, then AT, then THE, then THEATRE. Wish I was there to see it in person!Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09118041600027467817noreply@blogger.com
