Need an idea of what "industry" looked like in California in the 1940's? Check out this stock footage from Columbia pictures in 1946, showing the industrial buildings along the SP tracks from Glendale to Van Nuys. It's got auto wrecking yards, packing houses, building supply wholesalers, and oil depots.
I'm annoyed I don't model Los Angeles today.
Great thanks to the Internet Archive for saving and digitizing films like these!
