AmericaJR.com Visits the World's Tallest Thermometer

• 72155 Baker Boulevard • Baker, California •

The world's tallest thermometer is a landmark located in Baker, California, USA.

It was built in 1991 by the Young Electric Sign Company of Salt Lake City for Willis Herron, a local businessman who spent $700,000 to build the thermometer next to his Bun Boy restaurant (later replaced by Bob's Big Boy).

It commemorates the record 134 degrees Fahrenheit (57 degrees Celsius) recorded in nearby Death Valley on July 10, 1913.

Willis Herron Herron sold the attraction and restaurant to another local businessman, Larry Dabour, who sold it in 2005.
