Left, the world's first Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant at 3900 S. State in Salt Lake City was torn down in April, but a new KFC has taken its place offering more seating, more parking and memorabilia. Below left, 85-year-old Pete Harman (co-founder of KFC) examines the statue of him and Colonel Harland Sanders. Below right, Vernell Anderson, wife of Don Anderson, the Salt Lake painter who came up with the name "Kentucky Fried Chicken," reads about the restaurant's history. In August 1952, Harman began selling Sanders' crispy fried chicken.
