Van Nuys 70’s Pool Room

[Danimal]

I came across an online album of pictures from Van Nuys, California during the 70’s. Anybody recognize the pool hall on the left of the old Capri Theater? Can’t seem to find any info on it anywhere…

And probably a few others on this board.
Cool to see these places, the photos could be the only thing that preserves them soon.

I moved to Van Nuys end of 76 and don't remember this room. I played out of Tiffs North Hollywood Billiards mostly. Sorry, I'm no help.

Very cool photo - I see some cool old cars parked there - from the left possibly an El Camino, then a VW bug, then a big Plymouth black top convertible, then a VW bus.
The tables in the room do not look like GCs from what I can see.
