Frank N' Stein restaurants

About 20 years ago, Brinke Stevens and Henry Alvarez were part of a group that was trying to raise financing for a string of Frank-N-Stein restaurants. I remember seeing a brochure for potential franchisees. Henry was to provide the figure to decorate the restaurants. From what I understand, Universal Pictures tried to block it. This led to investors shying away from it.

Whoa, I never knew that Universal quashed this project. I always thought Henry and partner Del Winans just weren't able to raise the necessary capital.
I still have my brochure and prospectus from back then, both full of fun menu concepts >

       

I also got a nifty "crew jacket" out of the deal >

Sometime before I left California in 2011, I was a season pass holder at Universal Studios. They had a food service location called "Frank N' Stein from June 2001 to November 2006.

There is an Etsy seller who is hawking 3D printings of the huge statue that stood out front.  You can get them in two different paint schemes or unpainted.
