Bennett's Ice Cream
Bennett’s Ice Cream is one of the last of a vanishing tradition: Scott Bennett and his staff make their own ice cream from fresh ingredients mixed on the spot (you can watch the process through Bennett’s kitchen window). The result is so fine that Bennett's regularly wins awards (there are Blue Ribbons all over the shop). The flavors are also wonderfully inventive – try Scott’s cabernet sauvignon sorbet or his pumpkin ice cream. Click here to learn about Scott Bennett, owner of Bennett's Ice Cream.

Marconda’s Meats
At Marconda’s, you’ll see the pro’s ordering at the counter every day. The selection is amazing: a wide range of steaks and chops, roasts butchered to your specifications, ground beef and lamb, homemade Italian sausage (turkey Italian sausage, too) and a New York hot dog which is simply sublime. Don’t neglect the exceptional array of cold cuts around the corner from the main counter. Click here to learn about the DeRosa Family, owners of Marconda's Meats.

Los Angeles's Original Farmers Market

By David Hamlin and Brett Arena Since 1934, the Original Farmers Market at 3rd & Fairfax in Los Angeles has been at the center of the citys history, from the Great Depression to todays Great Recession. It has endured as one of LAs most treasured locations, drawing visitors not only from the city it helped mold but also millions of tourists from around the world. Authors David Hamlin and Brett Arena capture the Markets quirky beginnings, its enduring personality, popularity and eccentricities in a new book from Arcadia Publishings Image of America series. With the help of hundreds of rare archival photos made available from the Farmers Market owner, the A. F. Gilmore Company, the authors trace the evolution of the property through a rich history that reads more like fiction than real history. 128 pages, paperback.

 
Gilmore Oil Stickers

The perfect addition to your Gilmore Oil Co collection.  These 3" high-quality stickers are available in 3 different designs: "Roar with Gilmore", "Red Lion" and "Record Breaker". Individually sold. 

 
Gray Gilmore Gas Tee
As the Gilmore Oil Company evolved over the decades, so did its emblems. This charcoal gray, pre-shrunk 50% cotton, 50% polyester ultra-soft, short sleeve tee features TWO of the Company's classic emblems on one great shirt: The "Roar with Gilmore" logo on the front left chest, and "Gilmore Gasoline Monarch of All" logo on the back.
