Late 1940s independent grocer, San Fernando Valley?
Hi all,
I'm looking for an old independent, full service grocery store that I found on Google maps a few years ago, but I forgot the name and the city. I believe it opened in the late 1940s or very early 1950s. I wanna say it was located near the 101 corridor in the southern San Fernando Valley. I think it is a brick structure, possibly with a pylon tower. And I think it has the original neon sign still. And it wasn't M&M market in Studio City, but it was something similar.

Found it! Handy Market in Burbank. It has been Handy Market since 1969, but the 9,600 square foot building was built in 1952.

Unsurprisingly, this market was used as a filming location :)
