Description
View of the Yost Sweet Shop, possibly located at 804 San Fernando Road in Burbank. The building is in the shape of a woman with a hat, long curls in her hair, a large hoop skirt, and is holding a fan. Two ice cream cones flank the entrance, which is through her skirt. Signs on either side of her read: “Candy – tobaccos. Yost Sweet Shop. Whipped Ice Cream.” "Good old Eastside. Sold here. Ice cold soda – water of all kinds.” This structure is very similar to Betsy Ann Ice Cream, photo 00068625. It possible this location was a Betsy Ann shop at one time.
