Isaly's chipped ham, Klondikes celebrated in new historical book
Is there a Western Pennsylvanian who hasn’t eaten Isaly’s chipped chopped ham or sung along to the advertising jingle, “What would you do for a Klondike bar?”
Now they can learn how Isaly’s grew from horse-drawn milk wagons to become the world’s largest dairy store chain in the Senator John Heinz History Center’s newest book,
“Isaly’s Chipped Ham, Klondikes, and Other Tales from Behind the Counter.”
The 148-page book, by award-winning author Brian Butko, features more than 400 historic images and illustrations and is now available in the History Center Museum Shop and online store.
In addition to his latest work, Butko has researched and written books on the history of Kennywood, Luna Park and the Lincoln Highway, along with other popular history that chronicles Pittsburgh and beyond. Butko serves as the History Center’s director of publications and the editor of its Western Pennsylvania History magazine.
