Romeo's Times Square. 1955, Armet & Davis, Fairfax at Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles.

Romeo's blinking incandescent lights recalled nostalgically the lights of Times Square.

Perforated copper sections were backlit, creating a sparkle effect. Inside, a mural

of Times Square overlooked costumed "Juliettes" waiting on tables."

From Alan Hess' book entitled, Googie-Fifties Coffee Shop Architecture.
