Description
View of "The Pup", a hot dog and hamburger stand located at 12728 Washington Blvd. in the community of Venice. The Pup is a small fast-food restaurant in the shape of a large white dog with black spots, sitting on hind legs. The entrance is through a door on his belly. A sign resting against the side reads: "Chili. Hot dogs and Hamburgers". It appears that the lots on either side are vacant, but houses can be seen in the background. Photograph dated February 5, 1930.
