The Diner 202

Anderson, Missouri

I have a note saying this photo was from 1941, but I don't know its source.

Center Dining Car

6 Mi. So. of Wilmington, Delaware, on Route 40 & 13

Definitely in operation in 1942. "Help Wanted" ads looking for a short order cook appeared in Wilmington's Morning News in late '42 and early '43. 

There is a Center Dining car listed on Frank Brusca's Route40.net in New Castle, which is just south of Wilmington. The page looks like it was last updated in 2010 so diner was probably in business at that time.

919 - 922  Purchase St.

New Bedford,  Massachusetts

Date unknown. The facade in the illustration looks art deco and Prohibition ended in December 1933, so I'm guessing this is from the 1930s or 1940s. A check of Google maps shows that Purchase Street addresses now go no higher than 908, ending at Middle Street, so the building that contained this hotel and eatery was probably demolished. This area is the "heart of downton Bedford", and the Atlantic must've been a pretty swank place in its time.

HIGHWAY  DINER
Winslow  -  Williams  -  Flagstaff

A google search Jan 2018 failed to produce any info about the Highway Diner in any of the three towns listed on the matchbook cover, except for the 2003 photograph by John Margolies.
Date of matchbook cover is unknown.
It's possible one or all of the diners have changed names.

Dilly Diner

Tampa, Florida

Air Conditioned   -   Open 24 Hours

I'm no expert on car id's, but that beige 2-tone station wagon looks like a 1953 Ford.

Grove Diner

Kodachrome by Joseph Morsello

68th and Ognotz Avenue   -   Philadelphia, PA

One of Philadelphia's Favorite Diners serving 10,000 patrons weekly 

with excellent food from a modern kitchen.  Open 24 hours daily.  Ample Parking Space. 

Our other Diner, 8705 Germantown Avenue, Philadelphia, Penna.

According to Diners of Pennsylvania this particular diner model was a 1948 Paramount.

Checking a street view on Google maps I see the brown brick building in the background is still standing, but the corner is now home to a Mini Mart.
