PRINTED IN & SHIPPED FROM USA
Our high quality unisex sweatshirts consist of a premium 8.5oz cotton/polyester blend with a classic crew neck and flattering fit.
Mar-Lin-Do Lanes was a quintessential mid-century bowling establishment that epitomized Burbank's post-war entertainment boom of the 1950s and 1960s. Located on San Fernando Boulevard, this family-owned venue perfectly captured the era when bowling alleys transformed from simple recreation centers into complete entertainment destinations, complete with cocktail lounges and full-service restaurants. The establishment represented the golden age of suburban leisure culture in Southern California, when families and friends gathered for an evening of strikes, spares, and socializing. Mar-Lin-Do stood as a testament to that uniquely American tradition of combining sport, dining, and nightlife under one neon-lit roof. Part of our Vintage Los Angeles collection, featuring the iconic local landmarks of yesteryear.

The design features white ink typography combining elegant script lettering for "Cocktail Lounge" with bold condensed block letters for "MARICO DEL," "16 LANES," "RESTAURANT," and the address "1600 N.
