Can you imagine the stories the waitresses at "The Berries" could tell.

And to think, in 1938, just up ahead, around that curve, Monkey Island beckons.

I'm afraid I'm not going to be very helpful about finding something to do with your 1938 photo of "The Berries," but I did find this 1937 photo. I'm wondering if it's the same section of Cahuenga, only from the opposite direction. There's an EXAMINER sign which might be in the appropriate place in both photos, though I cannot tell if the road curves up ahead in the 1938 photo.

1938: Looks similar/the same stretch of road The Berries photo is on. (?)

1940: facing South (at Barham, I'm guessing)
