Landmark Trivia

• In 1978, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce set out to replace the intensely deteriorated sign with a more permanent structure. Nine donors gave $27,700 apiece to sponsor replacement letters made of Australian steel, guaranteed to last for many years.
• The letters that form the sign are 45 ft. (13.7 m) high, five feet (1.65 m) shorter than the original height.
