Watercolor Painting by William Rubin. This one-of-a-kind watercolor was specifically painted for my sister, Michele, by Rubin, in the early 1970s. |
Al was a chemical engineer who gladly worked the stand during the late shift often going past midnight wrapping those Vienna hot dogs and fries together. It was the hangout best remembered for its vitality as a happening little shack and the center of the neighborhood activity for many years.
The Ranch, as it was known, is gone now but will always be a part of the north side culture. Vienna Beef inducted the Red Hot Ranch on September 24, 2010.
High-Resolution prints are available in sizes up to 60" x 40" on your choice of quality papers or printed on Canvas. Also available on wrapped Canvas which needs no frame. See all choices.

I would get a bag of wonderful (but greasy) fries and eat them on my bike ride home to Pratt and Richmond. SuperFuel!
ReplyDeleteGreat place and good memories. Wouldn't mind a dog and fries right now!
ReplyDeleteGreat memories of the fries, with the bottom of the bag completely saturated with grease. ....sounds gross, but it was heaven
