The Ron DeFore Collection: Silver Banjo 3



These boys from the military got a hearty welcome from Don DeFore and his younger brother, Verne. 2nd shot is a rare interior view of the Silver Banjo Barbecue. If you look closely at the waitress’ tray, then shot #3 will have much more meaning to you. And if this photo makes the interior look cramped, well....it was cramped. It was a tiny space, both on the customer side as well as on the kitchen side.



Here is one of the original serving trays from the Silver Banjo Barbecuu:

The coffee cups are Disneyland coffee cups with graphics of the attractions around the outside. Made of paper and very rare now.

Look at that tiny table, with four big guys sitting around it. There's no way they'll have room for four trays and their drinks!
