A Bit Of Sweden



Hey, I like a good smorgasbord.  A Bit of Sweden isn't there anymore.  It was at the corner of Sunset and Doheny on the Sunset Strip.  I wasn't able to find out when it went out of business, but I like the idea of Jim Morrison dropping in for some meatballs after playing  the Whiskey. 

So, information from the back, "Bit of Sweden  9051 Sunset Blvd.  HOLLYWOOD, CAL  Phone. BRadshaw 2-2800  The Unique Restaurant featuring the world's largest Smorgasbord, find foods and liqueurs."  "A Shini Color by Colourpicture, Boston 15, Mass., U.S.A. 2143 So. Alsace Ave., L.A."  Colourpicture was in business from 1938-1969. 

I found the original black and white photo on line.   The colorist at the publisher removed a poll and a lot of cars.
