From the Vintage Los Angeles Facebook page comes this probably not-so-silent night-ish view of Hollywood Boulevard looking east from the late 1940s. Even if we didn’t have the cars to confirm that era for us, we can at least identify it by the fact that the Drake Hotel was renamed that in 1945 and kept that name until 1958. For once, we’re not asking anybody to identify the cars here, rather to just soak up the warm glow of the scene, maybe pour a glass of eggnog, and have a happy holiday.
