53 Dragon Decor
« on: September 02, 2012, 09:47:10 PM »
I saw this at a Burger King in Fairfax, Virginia.





I was especially happy that it was a '53 Dragon like my own.  This was a nice change from the '57 Chevys we see so much of--not that they aren't nice cars too, but just happy to see KF represented.

This is interesting.  Normally chain stores do not allow anything that deviates from "catalog" decor without special advance permission.  Is this something that is commercially available?  It might be of interest to know where the store got it or is it in the Burger King "official" book of decoration items company approved?

I do wonder where they got it from.  Maybe I will ask next time I'm in.  They do have several other 50's cars in the same style there.

What a neat item to perhaps reproduce (in a smaller size) for the club to sell, and/or use for trophies.  It certainly is very eye catching!   :)
