Nice find, Eddie. The MIL lived in Lakewood before she moved down to San Diego so we could take care of her. That very first picture looks like it was shot right on her street. Of course, it's a false color image. We all know the world was still monochromatic in those days.
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
Depended on the drugs you happened to on at the moment. Like LDS, the popular Mormon psychotropic.

Love the pics. Too bad it still isn't like this.

That's a pretty cool photostream! Thanks for linking it here for us :)
There was a movie from that era shot in LA that I've always liked. I Saw What You Did, where two bored teenagers who are babysitting start making crank calls. That house over LA sort of reminded me of that.

I love looking at old photographs wherever they're from....... I remember going through Garden Grove on my way to Disneyland in 1994.....strange,did'nt look anything like that in the photograph... ;)
...... and all those LA shots with the city hall in most of them....I guess it such an imposing building on the skyline you just had to include it the shot!
......and where is all the traffic on the streets and highways?....... I remember a hell of a lot more vehicles when I was visiting there!
Why,driving into a brick wall at 60 miles per hour, would I expect it not to hurt!
Walk and Talk like a Canajun!!
thanx for the trip down memory lane Desert Rat....
was born & raised in Long Beach, 20 miles South of LA....lots of those pix
showed some of my hangouts in the 50's-60's.....the thing that struck me
the most was how smog free the skies were back then...by the time I left
SoCal in 1976, you could barely see the mountains that surround LA...
