Good For A Smile At/ Majestic Saloon/ S.F. Bean, Prop./ Las Cruces, N.M.// Go Way Back And Sit Down/ Keep Me Never Be Caught Short. 1905 Indian Head cent encased in a chamber pot, from Las Cruces, NM, while still a territory. The prop., S. F. Bean, was a favorite nephew of Judge Roy Bean, of Langtry, Texas fame. Illuminated with carbide gas lights, it exploded in 1906 while opening for business as the gas-filled saloon ignited when the first lamp was lit. One of the great NM pieces, made more desirable by the Judge Roy Bean connection. HKA#62752
