Access to earlier listings or paper archives might be helpful. For some reasons I recall reading another name may have graced that location but I can't presently verify.
Googies presentation seemed to be well thought out. Pippy's seems to have been a mishmash of competing signage.
A better image that JD would recognize. Probably from the '50s. Notice second sign: "Googies Coffee Shop."
