Coon Chicken Inn

Coon Chicken Inn was an American chain of three restaurants that was founded by Maxon Lester Graham and Adelaide Burt in 1925, which prospered until the late 1950s. The restaurant's name contained the word Coon, considered a racial slur, and the trademarks and entrances of the restaurants were designed to look like a smiling caricature of an African-American porter. The smiling capped porter head also appeared on menus, dishes, and promotional items. Due to changes in popular culture and the general consideration of being culturally and racially offensive, the chain was closed by 1957. rdf:langString
Coon Chicken Inn foi uma rede estadunidense de quatro restaurantes, fundada por Maxon Lester Graham e Adelaide Burt em 1925, que prosperou até o fim dos anos 1950. A rede de restaurantes foi popular em seu tempo. O nome do restaurante (que usa um estigma étnico), marcas registradas, e entradas dos restaurantes foram desenhados para parecer com uma caricatura blackface sorridente de um porteiro Afro-Americano. A cabeça do porteiro sorridente também aparecia em menus, pratos e itens promocionais. Devido a mudanças na cultura popular e a consideração geral de ser racialmente ofensivo, a rede foi desde então descontinuada e agora está extinta. rdf:langString

The smiling capped porter head also appeared on menus, dishes, and promotional items. Due to changes in popular culture and the general consideration of being culturally and racially offensive, the chain was closed by 1957. The first Coon Chicken Inn was opened in suburban Salt Lake City, Utah in 1925. In 1929, another restaurant was opened in then-suburban Lake City, Seattle, and a third was opened in the Hollywood District of Portland, Oregon, in 1931. A fourth location was advertised but never opened in Spokane, Washington. Later, a cabaret, orchestra, and catering were added to the Seattle and Salt Lake restaurants. The Portland location at 5474 NE Sandy Blvd. closed in 1949 and was converted into another restaurant, and is currently the location of Clyde's Prime Rib. The Seattle location also closed in 1949 and is no longer standing. That address at 8500 Lake City Way is now occupied by The Growler Guys restaurant. The Salt Lake City location at 2960 S. (sometimes listed as 2950 S.) Highland Drive closed in 1957 and is now the site of a furniture store.
