Title

Ollie's Trolley, Feburary, 22, 1974

Description

In the early 1970s, Jasper Ward was hired to design a prototype for former Kentucky Governor and restaurateur John Y. Brown's new fast-food venture. Ollie's Trolley is a restaurant franchise built free-standing and modeled after a historic trolley car. The digitized items in our set are of the exterior elevations of the trolley cars. We also have one drawing on poster board of an Ollie's Trolley restaurant, location unknown.
