An Exceptional Photo of Priddy’s Inn Springfield, Illinois, Who Offered Curb Service

[t-head]

Sorry there are not more in the way of automobiles in this circa 1929 photo, but it such a great image we decided to use it as it is a wonderful example of the times. Priddy’s Inn, was located in Springfield, IL. and offered full dining services along with fountain and curb side service. A 1929 Buick is at the curb and it appears that a Dodge Sedan is passing by on the street behind it.

The photo is courtesy of Joe Sonderman who has a Route 66 photo collection that we have been posting in a series.

Curb service, what a novel idea!

What a great photo. My mother possibly ate there as she lived in Springfield until she joined the Marine Corps in 1943. Thanks for posting it.
