February 9th is National Pizza Day! For today, Jared shares a pizza joke while printing and shares some Sacramento pizza history. Sacramento was home to the original Shakey’s Pizza Parlor, which opened in April 1954, at the corner of J and 57th Streets (where Mimosa House restaurant is today).  Sherwood “Shakey” Johnson and Ed Plummer converted a former grocery store at the location into a pizza parlor originally called Shakey’s Pizza Parlor & Ye Public House.  In 1956, a second Shakey’s opened making Shakey’s the first franchise pizza chain in the United States. By the time Johnson retired in 1967, there were 272 Shakey’s restaurants in the United States, and in the 1970s the company expanded internationally with over 400 restaurants worldwide. There were five other Shakey’s restaurants in Sacramento during the chain’s height. The original Shakey’s restaurant closed in 1996. The neon sign from the original Shakey’s was donated to the Center for Sacramento History. The sign resides today at the Golden 1 Center (home of the Sacramento Kings) where it is on display with signs from other prominent former businesses in Sacramento.   #NationalPizzaDay #shakeyspizza #sacramento #pizza #SacHistoryMuseum #jokes #museum #sactiktok #printingpress
