hmmmm..."r"? as in residence? could that mean a business listing, too?
uh-huh...

------------------------------------------------
1945 lists:
Dietrich Mona T Parkway Beauty Salon 120 Sierra
(same Mona??)
Dietrich Mona r 231 Claremont....3492 ("r" as in residence)
There's no listing for the Red Feather, I looked under cocktail lounges to see if there was one listed at 231 Claremont...there wasn't.
------------------------------------------------
Came up totally empty on the 49er in Tahoe, very few listings in our phone books....you sold a LT phone book on ebay, and I forgot to bid

hope this helps with Mona....
