Scope and content
In October of 1956, a jolly man in the white chef's hat beckoned hungry customers from atop the sign to the Jolly Jack Char Broiler at 8801 South Tacoma Way. Owned by Jack M. Wood, the popular Lakewood eatery offered drive thru service. Their self proclaimed "big, juicy and delicious" charbroiled Jolly Jack burger sold for $.35 and their Little Jack was only a quarter. They also served cones, shakes and freshly baked pizza. Jolly Jack's went out of business in the mid-1960s. (Ordered by Carolyn Sholdar Associates.)
