Default Howdy Beefburger Red Sox bumper sticker

Posted By: Greg Theberge

When in doubt....Google it.



Come to find out, this was a fairly big chain during the 60s in the New England area which was started by William Rosenberg who also founded Dunkin Donuts. White I remember Burger Chef more than Howdy Beefburgers, there appears to be at least one of the franchises located here in RI.

Here's what they looked like (this is not the RI Howdy):

As far as not being "Vintage enough", there's a lot here on the memorabilia side that is much later than "pre-war" so thanks for posting this neat piece. Personally, I love any type of product advertising before the seventies so thanks for sharing. Of course, if it was a Yankees piece and not a Red Sox piece, I would think otherwise! happy.gif
