Wimpy's hamburger stand

A white, single-storey snack stand with a Spanish tile roof and a striped awning stands at a street corner; the name Wimpy's is written in script on its front, a tall pole carries a cut-out figure of a portly man in a bowler hat, and a board at the left advertises delicious turkey sandwiches for 15 cents. Agaves and a yucca grow in the bed before the counter. The name and figure are those of J. Wellington Wimpy, the hamburger-loving character of the Popeye comic strip.
