Dear fellow Hanoverians:
On September 21st at 7:00 p.m.,
noted historian Anthony Sammarco will present a lavishly illustrated slide
lecture on Howard Johnson, who is credited with being the “Father of the
Franchise Industry”. Howard Johnson was born in Wollaston,
Massachusetts and began his empire by selling newspapers, cigars, and ice
cream, which by the 1930s would include 28 flavors, with a recipe for
delectable double fat ice cream that brought patrons back for more.
This program, held at our very own John Curtis
Library, is sponsored by the Friends of the John Curtis Library and is open and
free to the public. Refreshments will be served.
