I just had to share this newspaper advertisement for a 1975 San Francisco Bay Area restaurant which I came across recently while doing research. If you love classic Hollywood, this is the place to eat. . . . Jean Harlow, Hedy Lamar, W.C. Fields, Bela Lugosi, James Cagney, Myrna Loy, Janet Gaynor, Marlene Dietrich, and Gary Cooper. Even Carole Lombard and Ronald Colman (each mis-spelled) are included. Three of the stars noted below appeared in a Louise Brooks film. Do you know who?
