You've actually helped tremendously here with my urban archeology, as I did not know what the building looked like. But I have one advertisement from the Flying Jib. I've been researching folk music dens, jazz nightclubs and coffeehouses in SoCal, c. 1952-66 for an upcoming book, and I have to admit, I've only done one day of research in Redondo Beach thus far, though I've gone surfing more times than I care to admit in the South Bay. Good times over research? Damn, I can be so lazy sometimes. Anyway, I don't know how to post pictures on these message boards, so I'll just email the ad to Bigtikidude privately, and he can post it. It is from a 1965 issue of the Los Angeles Free Press. Yours, Brian Chidester
