Outside the Bradbury Building on a wall at 242 S. Broadway is this Anthony Quinn - Pope of Broadway mural. The Victor Clothing Company commissioned muralist Eloy Torrez to paint the “Pope of Broadway” back in 1985 as an homage to its Latino clientele.
The mural is referred to in Connelly's book ANGELS FLIGHT.
Charlie Chaplin is on loan to sit in the lobby of the Bradbury Building.
It also is mentioned as a meeting place in Michael Connelly's THE BLACK BOX.
