Answers:
The sign originally read "HOLLYWOODLAND", and its purpose was to advertise a new housing development in the hills above the Hollywood district of Los Angeles!. H!.J!. Whitley had already used a sign to advertise his development Whitley Heights, which was located between Highland Avenue and Vine Avenue!. He suggested to his friend Harry Chandler, the owner of the Los Angeles Times, that the land syndicate in which he was involved make a similar sign to advertise their land!. Real estate developers Woodruff and Shoults called their development "Hollywoodland" and advertised it as a "superb environment without excessive cost on the Hollywood side of the hills!."Www@Enter-QA@Com
No legend!. The sign was erected by Realtors!. (Estate Agents) As Hollywood became the favourite place for film studios, they adopted the sign!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
