The "Big Boy" restaurants all went by different names, I suspect something choosen by the franchiser. We had "Kips" in Tulsa, "Azar's" in Fort Wayne, IN, when I was growing up.

The "Big Boy" statues are around - but usually for a pretty good price - multiple hundreds. You can sometimes find them on EBAY or at swap meets or at automobilia or advertising memoribilia shows.

We even had one in the little town of Quakertown, on the corner of Rt 309 (West End Blvd.) & 663/313 (Broad st.), but I believe that was during the time we were in the Guinness Book for the most eating places in a MILE stretch.

The Big Boy my dad has came from a Shoney's which I think was in southern Illinois. I am not sure about that tho.
