Hollywood Sign Saved by Hugh Hefner

[5Joseph]

Hugh Hefner, creator of playboy magazine donated 900,000 dollars to save the hollywood sign. Now the land surrounding the hollywood sign is protected by law. I went to hollywood last summer and drove by it and i am glad its still going to be there.

When people think of California they think of the Hollywood sign. It wouldnt be the same without it. I am very glad that Hugh donated the money to keep it. I have always wanted to go there and see that sign.
