White Castle 1


White Castle 1 • this painting is sold

White Castle is the oldest American hamburger fast food restaurant chain. It is known for square burgers, commonly referred to as "slyders", which were priced at 5 cents until the 1940s, and remained at ten cents for years thereafter while growing smaller. For several years, when the original burgers sold for 5 cents, White Castle periodically ran promotional ads in local newspapers which contained coupons offering 5 burgers for 10 cents, takeout only. The typical White Castle restaurant architecture features a white exterior with a crenelated tower at one corner to resemble a medieval castle. The Chicago Water Tower, which stands on Michigan Avenue, is said to be the model for the classic building.

Show 'em you love Slyders! .... Buy 'em by the sack!
