I think this is the same Big Boy that was in my neighborhood on Vassal Lane in Cambridge for at least a decade.

Looks like it's the western version, and pre-1980s, not the eastern version.

These "Big Boy" items can be quite collectible. I've seen them on "Antiques Roadshow".

This isn't exactly Southern Cal, where I saw my first Big Boy. Maybe they should get him a North Face for the winter.

Remember when he was in Austin Powers:

Fun stuff - long live Big Boy!
