Florence, South Carolina -- 283 S Irby St (corner of U.S. 301, 76 & U.S. 52)
 

A circa 1960 stand-alone Restaurant location, Florence remained opened until about 1973. it was subsequently converted into other eateries, yet maintained its basic HoJo's Nims form until at least the early 2000s!

Note the name banner in the photo below -- it was a feature added to Restaurants starting in 1960 and would have had a simple Simon and the Pieman logo-sign below.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Built at one of the busiest intersections of 1960s Florence, the HoJo's lasted for a little more than a decade. Note that its sign base was recycled by the House of Louie.
