Barroom Wall

[Runscott]

Here is a photo with great clarity and some very interesting stuff. I'll start with the photos on the wall, then move to the tobacco.

I haven't yet researched any of these, but some images look familiar. The one with the four premiums is larger than the others and should be easier to figure out than the others.

Here are some photos from the wall to the left:

The bar from the Goodfella's movie ?


Some in the right side of the picture look like they will brake the photographers hands and camera for taking their picture.

Seen this picture as well...Look alot like(or may be) the bar from turn or century worlds fair that sits in ST Elmos steak house in Indianapolis. I live like 30 minutes from it and it it quite impressive. Not sure if this is it or not here is modern picture of the hand carved bar in Indy. Let me know what you think

Thanks for posting that pic, Mike.

I'm surprised no one wanted to take a shot at the single-player posters (Baseball Magazine, I think) in one of the photos, or the team photo that appears to have Mike Kelly at top center - I know it's a stretch, but the photo looks familiar, and I'm thinking it's a late 1800's Chicago or Boston team cabinet it reminds me of.

The single player batting with his bat pointing down is Frank Baker, I believe. I remember seeing it in an ad for Baseball Magazine posters. It is from 1912-1914.

I love the spitoons built into the foot rest! Ah, the good old days.
