Dillon's Copper Skillet "Coffee Shop of the Stars" in Hollywood, California vintage glass ashtray! This neat little spot has now succumbed to a chain restaurant. Their doors were open in the 40's and 50's during the golden age of Hollywood, and shut sometime in the 70's. If only this ashtray could divulge just whose cigarettes were extinguished in it! Since this restaurant has been closed for some time now, their items are collectible and an ashtray is hard to find.
