Coon Chicken Inn postcard - Salt Lake City
Soo...I've been searching eBay for postcards featuring long gone Salt Lake City business. I've had this one for a while, and have hesitated to post it because, well...it creeps me out just looking at it. But it's a piece of history, and trusting that we all understand history isn't always pretty, up it goes.
Here's a link:

(Salt Lakers might be interested to know that this restaurant was located at the site of the Chuck-a-rama on Highland Drive - the one that closed down in 2002 because of an infestation of some nasty gastrointestinal virus.)
