Rosslyn Hotels, Downtown Los Angeles, 1948

 

1948

 

 

The picture side of the card has an illustration of two downtown "Hotels connected by Marble Subway," as the title continues. The Rosslyn had an annex built across the street in 1923 after its 1914 opening, again designed by John Parkinson. An inset on the left side shows a "garden sun roof." A paragraph on the back advertises that the hotels are "near Union Station and all Bus Terminals" and a "Drive-in Auto Lobby" for the "1100 Rooms" at "$2.50-$10.00" a night. The Curt Teich number in the stampbox on the divided back is 8B-H1898.
