Looking for photos of exterior of Raji's, Cathay de Grande and Top Taco for documentary about Bob Forrest. (details)
For a documentary about Bob Forrest of Thelonious Monster, I'm looking for photos of the exteriors of some of his old haunts--specifically Raji's, Top Taco, and Cathay de Grande from the early to mid 1980s.
I'm not really looking for suggestions of places to search for such shots (I've already been to LAPL, LATimes, commercial stock photo places, UCLA, USC, LA Weekly, and so on) but from people who might have some snap shots from back in the day.

Response by poster: Thanks-I've been in touch with most of those guys, and of course Gary L. But Top Taco, esp. is proving very elusive.
