Notes: Oscar Henry was North Platte, Nebraska's restaurant king. Oscar's (also known as Oscar's Cafe, Oscar's Steaks) was so popular that at one time, there were three locations in the small Lincoln Highway town of North Platte, Nebraska.

A 1942 photo shows "Oscar's Steaks" with "The Step Inn" (a chile parlor) advertised on the same sign outside a small white building at 413 North Jeffers. That location was also the Greyhound Bus Station.

While this Shenango mug is only captioned "Oscar's," it shares the same logo with an "Oscar's Steaks" matchbook on eBay in June 2016.
