Toaster.org has a picture of a single slice toaster like yours. They list it as circa 1920s to 1940s.

A picture of the single slice toaster can be seen on this web page: Link

There is a clickable link on that page that shows an original ad for the single slice toaster.

Since yours has two sides, maybe it is a commercial toaster, used in restaurants, grills, etc.............

Here's someone you might be able to contact to find out about your toaster. See: Link

There's an email address in the top left corner of the page.

Maybe try searching sandwich press.

If all the world's a stage, I want to operate the trap door.

Hi
Since it is the West Coast maybe it's Hollywood and not Hollowood. I think Hollowood would have two W's.
