I would love to get a really high resolution scan of the Tiny Kline photo, to post on my blog (with credit to you of course!) at http://www.pepitoandjoanne.com/Pepito_and_Joanne/Blog/Entries/1917/11/1_Pepito_the_Clown_Mentioned_in_Tiny_Klines_Memoir_(1917).html

We refer to the building on left
as the "Equity Building" which is
still standing but the Miller Shoe
building is currently being torn
down to make way for a high rise
Sometime after this Bond Clothes
moved across the street at right
The Broadway streetcar line ran on
those tracks most of the length of
the city from Columbia Heights to
the Battery Ferry Terminal
That's the corner of 46th Street and 7th Avenue where the I Miller store is seen.
Chic: Gotcha! Bond moved TWO blocks south.
Although it's actually 7th Avenue
all the addresses between 42nd &
47th in the Times Square area are
listed as Broadway for prestige
Yup Dave you got me but that's
what I meant that they moved across
the street (& another block down)
to the 45th to 44th streets block
Not always right but never wrong
They pulled the statues from the
I Miller building before demolition
They are supposed to be used again
in the new edifice to the sky
Actor's Equity Association & many
other theatrical offices are still
in that building on the left
Chic: I think that's the building the old Newsreel Theater was in.
That sounds right Dave & nowadays
its marquee & lobby has become the
Times Square information center
& the temporary entrance to 165
West 46th (The Equity Building)
Do you have more info or photos of Tiny Kline?
