The top picture in the previous post is the downstairs room that used to be a restaurant at one time. The fabulous mural is original (mid 50's). These days it's mostly behind a curtain (for its own protection, I think), which can easily be pulled back if needed. The second screen grab is the main floor tiki bar (the yellow neon tiki bar sign is set dressing). You can seen one of the inset Leeteg paintings behind the head of the server. The two panels on either side of the Leeteg are set dressing, as is the tiki on the extreme right. If you're thinking of renting this movie just for the Waldorf scenes, I'd say don't bother - they're very short and don't really give any sense of the place.
