I remember hearing about the documentary "The Automat" a few years ago, and when it was on the TCM schedule, I recorded it, or so I thought. When I tried to play it back, there had been a problem with the cable that left the picture scrambled and the audio garbled. But recently, I got a second chance, and this time it recorded properly.
Above, a still from the film reminded me of a photo I'd seen online and saved. Not exactly the same, but likely taken moments apart from the same spot on the same rainy day in 1943.
Wonder what the "E" billboard next to the Automat sign was promoting? Was there an "E" war bond?
