O.O. - Old LA




On my last biz trip to LA walked through a building to get to where I was going - and came across these artifacts in the hall. How beautiful... Can't you just imagine detectives from the Black Dalhia making calls back to the paper with breaking news in these little rooms. Or debonair gentlemen with trench coats and scarfs, smoking cigars?

I hope craftsmanship doesn't go out the window completely in our time. Reasonable for it to be redefined - and there is some beautiful, modern design today. I just hope we don't completely detour from natural materials and classic lines.

Amazing how pay phones are now obsolete...
