Chico,CA - Butte County - c1908 - Iron Brew Saloon Photograph :
Decorative saloon interior. Wooden bar front. A bartender stands behind the bar next to a young boy with an open whiskey bottle in from of them, and a man in a cowboy hat on the other side. Many framed pictures placed along the back wall in between whiskey bottles and rows of shot glasses. A sign to the right of the wall "Ironbrew Chico Soda Works". Caille machine rests along the wall and reads "Play 2 Bits" in the window. These machines were a lot more unique than the others because some of them had an "antitheft-lock" system where there is a shutter which closed the coin chutes. Next to the caille is a small gramophone sitting on top of the bar. The floors of the saloon are filled with sand throughout. Photo measures 9 3/4" x 7 1/2" in a peach colored cardboard frame measuring 13 3/4"x 10 3/4". High contrast, and low focus where bottle labels and signs are very hard to read.
