The American meat and cold cut producer announced the hot
dog-shaped vehicles are being rebranded for the first time in
history in honor of the company’s new 100% Beef Franks,
according to a press release issued by the Kraft Heinz
Company today.

Now called Frankmobiles, a fleet of them will hit the highways
nationwide this summer and will have painted lettering that
references the vehicle’s new name and "all beef" frank recipe.

The Oscar Mayer Wienermobile has evolved from
Carl Mayer’s original 1936 vehicle to the vehicles
seen on the road today. Although that first
Wienermobile was scrapped for metal in the
1940s to aid the US Army during World War II,
in the 1950s Oscar Mayer and the Gerstenslager
Company created several new vehicles using a
Dodge chassis or a Willys Jeep chassis. One
of these models is on display at the Henry Ford
Museum in Dearborn, Michigan. (above)

The now-famous photograph (above) of John and Yoko is all the
more poignant for having been taken on the morning of December
8, 1980, just twelve hours before Lennon’s death.   

Annie Leibovitz (below) was commissioned by Rolling Stone to
photograph the couple as part of promotional efforts for their
joint album Double Fantasy.

On August 15, 1969, the Woodstock music festival opened on a patch of
farmland in White Lake, a hamlet in the upstate New York town of Bethel.

Promoters John Roberts, Joel Rosenman, Artie Kornfield and Michael Lang originally envisioned the festival as a way to raise funds to build a recording
studio and rock-and-roll retreat near the town of Woodstock, New York. The longtime artists’ colony was already a home base for Bob Dylan and other musicians. Despite their relative inexperience, the young promoters
managed to sign a roster of top acts, including the Jefferson Airplane, the
Who, the Grateful Dead, Sly and the Family Stone, Janis Joplin, Jimi
Hendrix, Creedence Clearwater Revival and many more.

Plans for the festival were on the verge of foundering, however, after both Woodstock and the nearby town of Wallkill denied permission to hold the
event. Dairy farmer Max Yasgur came to the rescue at the last minute,
giving the promoters access to his 600 acres of land in Bethel, some 50
miles from Woodstock. The event attracted an audience of more than
400.00.
