Cafe Continental, formerly the studio commissary, which was renamed and renovated in 1942 ​

I came across this photo some time ago and thought it was what I’d imagine a studio commissary would look like. But it was certainly an unusual time during the early 1960’s. It must have been early in the run of The Munsters if Beverly Owen is there.

I’d be curious if any Starfleet officers are in the Paramount commissary.

Would the dark-haired woman in the second picture above happen to be Charlotte Rae? She had appeared on "Car 54, Where Are You?" with Fred Gwynne and Al Lewis.

According a web search, that image is captioned and those two people between Fred Gwynne and Al Lewis is Harry Secombe and Charlotte Rae.

Surprised they allowed the actors to drink beer on lunch!

Three from Post #43 some years later.

Milkshakes: "Coop".

Milk shakes with nicotine flavor? Ugh!
Personally, I'd like to be sharing that milk shake with Ava...

 

[Nelson Au]

That’s Beverly Owen some years later? Almost unrecognizable.

Those shots of Debbie Reynolds must have been done for publicity. I can’t imagine having lunch that way is very pleasant!

And I agree, a milkshake and cigarette doesn’t look too appetizing!

It's not just milkshakes.

I was going to post this Debbie Reynolds cropped color version with the B&W one, but the HTF 'Attach files' thing couldn't see it. It was downloaded as a WEBP file, and it had to be re-saved as a JPG file.

Less cropped version of above posted picture.

Another view.

These were taken at the opening of Al Lewis' restaurant "Grampa's", in New York City, in April 1987.
