Hollywood 1940-2008 (Images of America)

Since World War II, Hollywood has fought and won that same war many times, won the West even more oftenâ€”plus got the girlâ€”and laughed like crazy, too. The postwar era in the dream factory was a prosperous time of expansion and wealth through the 1970s, decline in the 1980s, and rebirth in the new century. Vintage photographs from the rare collections of Hollywood Heritage and Bison Archives depict the municipal, business, residential, and entertainment industry growth in Hollywood proper, from 1940 until the beginning of the 21st century. This companion volume to Arcadia Publishingâ€™s Early Hollywood completes the pictorial saga of the worldâ€™s most renowned storytelling capital. These images depict the rise of the television industry, changes along Hollywood Boulevard, and movers and shakers whose visions and influence have made Hollywood the entertainment industryâ€™s Mecca.
