  I thought Sam Hood died in 1953? acms.sl.nsw.gov.au/item/itemdetailpaged.aspx?itemid=395018

• State Library of New South Wales said:

  Good point Beachcomber. It's from the Hood collection - obviously not actually taken by Sam. I've amended the thoughtless attribution above!

• David Hall said:

  From an era when the majority of people dressed smartly and had some self respect.

  Established 1931 • Phone 9-9426
  
  Here's a postcard from about the same time that also shows the interior.

  by Boston Public Library   The Tichnor Brothers Collection (postcard) c.1940

  
  A couple of newspaper ads for Betty's in the 1950's:
              Betty's Restaurant • Christmas Dinner Ad  •  1952
  
  
      Ad for Betty's Lobo Lounge • Miami Daily News • Feb. 4, 1957
  
  
  The American Legion held their 42nd National Convention in Miami Beach in October, 1960. Their official program had reviews of suggested restaurants and had this to say about Betty's:

  "Betty's Restaurant, 1440 Biscayne Boulevard, is
  famed for her well planned, medium-priced meals
  and the Lobo Lounge is quite the gay spot at
  night."
