Los Angles barber shop owned by Ernest O. Christie circa 1910s.

From the source:

"It is hard to tell the date of the picture of the Barber Shop since they tend to look alike through many years. Here is some "people" info: Ernest O. Christie was born in Washington State in 1876. His wife's name was Margaret. He is in Los Angeles in 1907 and the Barber Shop address was 503 1/2 E. Third. He again appears in a directory in 1909 and was working in a barber shop at 116 W. 5th and again in 1911 and 1912 in a shop at 509 W. 7th. Mr Christie appears again in the 1915 and 1918 directories at the same address for the shop. In 1915 he was living at 934 Corydon Drive.

He is in the 1920 Census as a barber in Los Angeles and was living with his wife in 1920 at 1006 W. 8th, LA. The 1939 directory shows his shop at 5510 Santa Monica Blvd. The 1940 Census has their residence at 247 S. Alameda. He certainly moved around a lot."

The time when a Burlesque dancer known as Lady Godiva, rode her horse, Melody, to court following an arrest for a "lewd performance" at a fraternal stag party circa 1951. I do not know if she performed on stage with the horse which would have been cool!
