The King in Naperville

Wednesday 🎸

Picture I took of the Naperville, IL Burger King 🤴 🍔

This first Ray Kroc owned McDonald's in Des Plaines, which opened in 1955 was removed by some idiots in corporate several years back. A Shame! Looks like 400 Burger Kings are set to close this year!

 

My late friend Allen Swift was the voice of the King! You will see him on the new Rankin/Bass' Mad Monster Party blu ray in May! #Burgerking #Allenswift

The original king is pretty cool too! My friend Dennis still has a sleeve patch like this, from when he worked there years ago. #burgerking #advertisingcharacter

My late friend Allen Swift, was the voice of Captain Cup Cake too! Hostess cup cake snack cakes were the thing! Besides doing all of the Monster voices and Felix Flankin in Rankin/Bass' Mad Monster Party, he did all of the voices in Diver Dan as well! His last appearance was in our Mad Monster Party documentary on the current blu ray and dvd! #allenswift #captaincupcake #madmonsterparty
