Easing out of smutweek, we have this ashtray from the Pink Pussycat on Santa Monica. Once upon a time in Hollywood, burlesque dancers with names like ‘Fran Sinatra’ managed to pull in her famous near-namesake and the other Rat Pack members as regulars. Lenny Bruce’s mom ran the striptease academy. An informative obituary tribute to one of the husband-and-wife founders. The location currently hosts Delilah, a restaurant that still has an ecdysiast touch.
