Description
The Malibu Inn, also known as the Malibu Beach Inn, appeared in the 1920s, rising with the popularity of the Malibu Movie Colony. The Malibu Inn was a fixture on Malibu Road behind the Colony until the redirection of the highway forced its move in the early 1950s. This postcard dates from the early years in its new location across from Malibu Pier at 22969 Pacific Coast Highway. The establishment took over the building operated by the Anchor Inn, which explains the anchor on the sign. Note it's motto: "Where the Stars Meet the Sea."
