The Canteen was located near the intersection of Cahuenga and Sunset Boulevards. Every night some 2,000 service people attended. All of the food, entertainment, and overhead were donated, and over 300 volunteers worked nightly from 7 PM until midnight in two shifts as bus persons, hosts and hostesses, kitchen crews, and general helpers. From the time the canteen opened on October 3, 1942, with Eddie Cantor as the master of ceremonies, until it closed three years later, over 6,000 stars, writers, directors, players, executives, and secretaries registered to work. the only reward they asked or received was the joy of giving.

They are master, original prints made in Jasgur's darkroom from the original negatives at the time the negative was struck. No negatives have survived and these are the only known prints.
