Today's topic is The Little King, an Otto Soglow comic strip character. I dig into the full history of the character from the 1930s to 1975 and it's huge impact on pop culture of that era.
Then, I travel to Hamilton Square, NJ to final location of the Little King Sandwich Shop. This once ubiquitous chain stretched from NJ to Los Angeles but now has dwindled down to one. I take a look at the beautiful murals in the restaurant and trace the growth and demise of the chain!
