Sunset Las Palmas Studio







Perry Mason and Petticoat Junction kept their low budgets low by using the same, plain studio office building on the lot. Here it is as a courthouse, a funeral home and Hooterville High.



1040 N Las Palmas Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90038
This entrance of the studio was used a number of times on The Beverly Hillbillies as Mammoth Pictures. Below, on Perry Mason as National Studios

These Perry Mason screenshots show the street view outside the studio gate.

And then, below, jumps onto the back of a truck driving into the studio. 


The reverse angle shows Las Palmas from the POV of being in the studio, including the real-life lingerie company "Lucille of Hollywood"

Full view with studio building

Scenes filmed just outside the studio gate on Las Palmas





A Perry Mason episode used the real studio address for a prop car registration!

On Location in Real Life, Old School Liquor Stores

Adam-12 
Police Story
The Rookies 1972
Mannix created this liquor store set at Paramount where you can see the lack of stock. The backs of the shelves are empty with bottles pushed to the front. 

This shot from a Perry Mason episode looks like a set created for an episode.
