In 1967 The Guernsey Cow Grew Bigger

 In 1967, The Guernsey Cow added on to the existing structure to expand the dining room and kitchen area. The photo below is taken from behind the ice cram counter looking into the old dining area. Elmer Polite, brother and partner of Larry Polite and Joseph Pep Puliti (and later, owner of Mr. Sandwich in West Chester) poses on the far right.

The column in the center later became the location of the blackboards that listed the available ice cream flavors.
