The Max Factor building on Highland Avenue

On a sunny street corner rises a pale four-storey building whose lower front is stepped in white pilasters with round medallions and shell-shaped niches; a tall vertical sign with the letters Factor runs up its corner, cars of the mid-1930s are parked along the kerb, and a taller office block rises at the left. The source gives the address as North Highland near Hollywood Boulevard; the building had been remodelled as the Max Factor make-up studio and opened in 1935.
