Children enjoying ice cream at the Hoot Hoot I Scream hut in Los Angeles, CA - c. 1930s
The head rotated; the eyes, made from Buick headlamps, blinked; the sign: Hoot hoot, I scream, used elements of a theater marquee. For over 50 years, Tillie Hattrup ran this L.A.-area refreshment spot designed and built by her husband, Roy in 1926-27. It was demolished in 1979.
Apologies for the repost of my own post, **but** this photo is now up in Vintage Explore, posted by someone else (several days after mine - ha!) with NO notes, No source link, and tagged “Owls” “ice cream” and “for Katie” (??!) - this irks me. Understatement.
