    Any old timers recognize this?

    I found a few old pictures in my grandmothers stuff and wondered if anyone knew where this was taken. My guess was southern Cal. or Mexico. There are 2 or three more, but this shows the most. I think the very tall sign says Alhambra. Times sure have changed.

    I can see at least 4 bars in the picture. It looks like they had a thriving business.
