JERRY O'MAHONEY, 1890-1969: Creator of the Jersey Diner. Sold pork and beans and corned beef hash from horse-drawn lunch wagons in Bayonne, then later bought stationary cars, which he renamed diners.


Famous diners built by Jerry O'Mahony Inc include the Emerald Diner. For 40 years, the Emerald served Norwich, Connecticut as "Burt's Diner." After Burt's closed, the building spent ten years in a purgatory familiar to many classic diners--the abandoned cornfield. Rescue came in 1994 when Hubbard, Ohio accountant James P. Marsh bought the diner, moved it to its present location, and began scrubbing this beauty up to its original lustre. The first cup of hot coffee was pushed across the counter at the Emerald in April of 1995.

Claimed to have been the "Cadillac" of diner companies because of its steel frame construction, The Jerry O'Mahony Diner Company of Elizabeth, New Jersey whose motto was "In our line, We lead the world" was said to have produced 2,000 diners from 1917 to 1941 with only four pre-war Art-Deco streamline style diners to still be in operation; the smaller 50' x 10' Mickey's Diner serial # 1067 in Saint Paul, Minnesota which is the first diner to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the 40' x 16' Collin's Diner serial # 1103 in North Canaan, Ct. and the 1938 Summit Diner in Summit, N.J; the Road Island Diner (O'Mahony Dining Car #1107) was added to the National Register of Historic Places by the National Park Service on August 21, 2009.
