    Finally, you're taking us in some of the cool stores on Hollywood Blvd. As you say " believe it or not" ,in the 60's I used to get off the RTD bus and go into that store and buy magic tricks every week. The magic counter was on the right side of the store, where the wigs are. The guy working there would demonstrate tricks for people. The store was much different back then. More toys and magic stuff. Thanks for the memories Mike.

    Hollywood Toys & Costume sure blows away the Halloween seasonal pop-up rip-offs. I saw a couple of masks of US politicians - you quickly passed by them and didn't say a thing. Thank you for that and an even greater thank you for this you of one of the greatest fun costume stores in the world.

    Mike I used to work at Larry Edmunds in the 80s-I’ll bet you were a customer! We did get a good number of German tourists in the summer. Also, your fave MJ came in *frequently*-also to the magic shop. I waited on him once-made me so nervous, and it was obvious enough he was laughing at me! In a nice way. He had the same mask on we’ve all been wearing lately. 😊

    I was born in Germany many moons ago and came to Hollywood in 1957, age 12, and basically grew up in Hollywood and graduated from Hollywood High in 1962. It was so awesome then. Hollywood Blvd. was so clean, we didn’t have to be afraid, oh what a glorious time. I like you and I enjoy your videos ❤. Tschüss, mach‘s gut!!
