“Crowds six deep around the bar and overflowing” came to fill the club to its brim while Billie Holiday performed. She stayed and performed at Tia Juana for an entire week in 1948. The Cleveland Call and Post described the club in those early years as the “fabulous, most beautiful cafe spot in the Midwest” and as a “plush and fabulous cafe spot where top-flight entertainment is the mode.” | Date: July 11, 1948 | Source: Cleveland Call and PostDownload Original File
