 The Speedee McDonald's
10207 Lakewood Blvd, Downey, California

 

The McDonald brothers created Speedee to symbolize the quick and efficient service system that they had devised. The McDonald Corporation eliminated Speedee in the early 1960s. Downey's Speedee is one of only a few remaining--his little legs, animated in neon, still run as fast as they can to serve McDonald's next customer!
