It was a long time ago, around 1930, I was running a flower shop in Little Tokyo, Los Angeles. Three years later, for some reason or other, they returned to Japan, but when the three of them were still alive, （ I found information and books of the flower shop in my childhood ） and the address.
It was a pre-war address, "332 E. first street, Los Angeles Calif.
However, since it is an old address, I can only find "maybe here ？". Because when I did a GOOGLE search, it was in front of the Sakura Hotel.
The address of the flower shop was "under Ohayo Hotel" from there.
I am having a hard time finding out where the Ohayo Hotel was located and if it was possibly the predecessor of the Sakura Hotel.
I am planning to visit Los Angeles in the near future to see my grandmother's roots, which were Japanese-American. （ I'm not sure if it's inside Skid Row, but ）

Perhaps there is a 90+ year old person who has lived in Little Tokyo since childhood, and if memory serves, there may be a chance.
If anyone has any information, please let us know.
By the way, the name of the flower shop my grandfather owned at that time was Tei （ MIKADO ）

In the 1930s, I think a ◯SHIMPO would have been issued.

The Toyo Miyatake Photo Studio was also located in Little Tokyo at that time. If you inquire, you may be able to find some photos from that time or someone who knew him.

Better yet, go to Koyasan by that address ？ If you were a florist, you must have had a deep relationship with him.

It's strange for you to ask Bibi for information from 94 years ago. Rafu ShimpoFounded 1903; 121 years ago
Contacting Rafu Shimpo would be impossible without records ？.

The Rafu Shimpo was founded in 903 ： by Shoji Yamaguchi, Seijiro Shibuya, and Eitaro Iijima, students at the University of Southern California
Los Angeles ・ who began publishing a Japanese language newspaper in a small office on Main Street.

The Rafu Shimpo would show the transition of Little Tokyo.

The Rafu Shimpo was first published in 1903 by Shoji Yamaguchi, Seijiro Shibuya, and Eitaro Iijima, all students at the University of Southern California. It provides a lot of information about the history of Little Tokyo and its transition, and is a very useful resource for learning about the changes in Little Tokyo.

If you want to know more about the history and transition of Little Tokyo, you may want to visit the archives of "Rafu Shimpo" or local history museums. In particular, the Japanese American National Museum （ ） has many valuable resources on the history of Little Tokyo.
