1922 – Lloyd at top at Yucca and Vine. Keaton at bottom near Hollywood and Cahuenga. HollywoodPhotographs.com
Just a quick post here about this aerial view taken in 1922 as the prominent Security Bank Building, at the NE corner of Hollywood Boulevard and Cahuenga, nears completion. I could point out so many filming spots in this photo, but will limit it to just two. Harold Lloyd’s runaway trolley stunt in Girl Shy (1924) (top oval), and Buster Keaton’s one-handed passing car grab in Cops (1922) (bottom oval). [Other Cops posts]
Click to enlarge. Harold Lloyd swings from west on Yucca to south on Vine in Girl Shy.
Click to enlarge. Buster Keaton grabs a passing car in Cops. The alley still stands south of Hollywood Blvd.

Thanks for all your work on these historic sites. While I was in the Hollywood area a few years ago, I used your book, Silent Echoes, to help me find filming sites. I also enjoy the new posts you put here for all to enjoy.
