One in Million: The Cock Robin and Prince Castles Story
In 1931, Walter Fredenhagen and his boyhood friend, Earl Prince opened the first of five Prince Castle Ice Cream Shops in Naperville, IL. Their partnership was sealed with a handshake and would lead to many ice cream innovations such as the multi-mixer shake machine, see-through ice cream containers and the square ice cream scoop.

This is the story of a man, his dreams and the simple pleasure of ice cream. One in a Million: The Cock Robin and Prince Castles Story was awarded the Crystal Communicator Award of Excellence by the National Communicator Awards in 2005.
