Happy new year from the Bremen A&W Drive-In…

The A&W opened in Bremen in the summer of 1957. They closed each winter (you can’t walk orders to the cars very easily if there’s snow all over), but before long Ervin Stuntz started selling Christmas trees there in December. It closed sometime in the mid-1970s and briefly reopened as Elsie’s restaurant.
