The Clock Broiler created ‘Chubby the Champ’ as its mascot burger in 1941 at its Lynwood location. Car hops dressed in satin marching band uniforms took orders and delivered food to vehicles - it must have been quite the service.

The Chubby was a hefty fellow with two beef patties and a slice of bun in the middle. Though he had a friendly smile, he also wore boxing gloves to show that this snack packed a punch.

By the 1950s, the popular drive-in with its geometric Googie-style architecture had expanded to more than a dozen locations including Van Nuys, Culver City, San Fernando, North Hollywood, Bellflower, Alhambra, Maywood, Huntington Park, Temple City and South Pasadena.

We believe this chain went out of business in the 1960s, probably because of increasing competition from other hamburger chains.

Born and raised in Vegas and now in Detroit. Being able to enjoy these menus is amazing. Put eight up in my dining room in matted frames. I couldn't be more impressed with them.

Loved the Katz Menu! Our grandson lives in view of the old Katz Dug Store I grew up going to in the 1950s and 1960s. We framed it behind glass with the menu behind glass on the frame back. He's going to love it for his birthday! The quality and color are bright and eye catching! Also found the history included very interesting! Thank you !

I gifted five of your menus to five different friends during the holiday season. I can't tell you how pleased each of the recipients were to receive the menus. So many fun memories were awakened. So much joy was shared. Good luck with your unique business.

Framed this for one of my wife’s Christmas gifts. She absolutely loves it. I used a frame with no mat and it turned out super nice.
