Object Description
This is a colored drawing of Chicago's Lou Mitchell's Restaurant. The restaurant has three umbrellas, small trees and two street lamps sitting out front. Above a blue and white awning, is the restaurant's sign saying, "Lou Mitchell's Serving the World's finest Coffee," the words partly obscured by the street lamps. On the right side of the restaurant are two large advertising signs with lights bordering them. In the bottom right hand corner is written "Chicago Lou Mitchell's Restaurant" right under the artist's signature. The drawing is bordered by a brown and light blue, matted on a cream background all in a dark wooden frame with a hanging wire attached to the back of the frame.
