| Hamburger Inn Mangum, OK |
former Golden Skillet Oklahoma City, OK |
 |
 |
|
The Hamburger Inn opened around 1928. The concrete building was produced by Portacon Buildings of Tulsa. The interior seating consists of six stools. [map]
This former Golden Skillet building now houses All Pro Cleaners. The sign has been adapted. This fried chicken company was established in 1964. The first location opened in 1968 in Richmond, VA. The chain grew to more than 200 locations mostly in the South. In 1981, the company was sold to Dairy Queen and most locations closed shortly after that. There are only a few still in operation, mostly in Virginia. However, there are many repurposed buildings with their giant skillet shaped signs left. For more, see this website. [map] |
