Here’s a few historical Los Angeles photo websites on the net:

Additionally, I received this email, and thought I would clarify:

Frank,
 
This may be a dumb question……..you were talking about the Tamale restaurant and used (sic) between hispanic and foods. I’ve seen this before and it’s been quite a long time since english class………please enlighten.

My Answer:

The caption didn’t capitalize Hispanic like I would have, had I written it. So I used the Latin word for thus — sic– which indicates an unusual spelling exists in a quote.

Hope that helps.
