Red's Giant Hamburg
Red's Giant Hamburg was a business on U.S. Route 66 in Springfield, Missouri which is believed to have been the world's first 'drive-through' restaurant. The red-haired Sheldon "Red" Chaney (May 20, 1916 – June 2, 1997) arrived in Springfield after World War II with a bride and a new college business degree. He purchased a small gas station with several wooden, motor court cabins tucked among trees on the back of the property. Eventually, a café was added in 1947. Growing weary of pumping gas and operating the motor court, the couple decided a better money-maker would be a restaurant. Since they owned a small herd of beef cattle (and would continue to raise their own beef till the close of the business), they decided to concentrate on hamburgers.
