MORE OLD HAWTHORNE, CA.


Ivy's Coffee Shop was located on the Northwest corner
of Hawthorne Blvd and El Segundo.

Arman's Sewing Machines and Vacuum Cleaners was directly across
the street from Ivy's, on the Northeast corner of Hawthorne Blvd and El Segundo.

Help! Can someone please tell me exactly where the Wallich's Music City store in the South Bay was located? I know it was on Hawthorne & Artesia, but WHERE on Hawthorne & Artesia? I'm assuming that it was in the lot on the Southeast side of Hawthorne Blvd, in the building that later became a Big Bens music store and then a Warehouse Music store? Am I right? Email me: chuck@luxuriamusic.com


And stay tuned for more pictures of vintage Hawthorne.

Hey Chuck,

I grew up in Hawthorne and was amazed at the film footage of Eucalyptus school from the day the tornado hit. I was in Mrs. Wolverton's first grade class that day--the back of the classroom is in your film. I remember everything up to the tornado hitting the room, the glass, tiles and pea gravel flying about, but nothing beyond that.

Glad to see you have this site up. Really quite a blast from the past.
