*NO SHIPPING! - PICKUP OR THIRD PARTY TRANSPORT ONLY* 41" tall Big Boy statue made from cast aluminum. Bob's Big Boy started as a 10-stool hamburger stand at 900 E Colorado St in Glendale, opened for $350 by 23-year-old Bob Wian who raised the money by selling his car. In the early months of 1937, about six months into operation, one of Wian's friends walked into the joint and reportedly asked for a different kind of hamburger, so Wian jokingly just added a second patty with a bun in between, inventing the double-decker burger which, to his surprise, suddenly took off. Wian named the sandwich the Big Boy Burger after six-year-old customer Richard Woodruff who used to come in on his own and stay at the counter eating multiple burgers until his grandmother would come in and drag him out of the place. Woodruff became the restaurant's mascot, when another regular customer, Warner Bros. animation artist Ben Washam, doodled the kid's caricature on a napkin one day while eating lunch. Wian saw it and asked to buy it, but Washam gave it to him for free. The statue is in VG condition. Measures 41" tall, 28" wide, 13" deep. No shipping, pickup or 3rd party transport only.
