That bar's killing me, too - beautiful, fish tanks, AND authentic 1930's...
I may have to add a tank to my own bar, now....

Unfortunately, the phrase is holding a lot of rum, though, which just may be what's holding me back. :)
But seriously, the dam broke (or leaked a bit) today at a flea held at the Croatian Cult. Centre nearby, where I found a few goodies;
charm bracelet, looks from the 60's

nut\candy dish & the familiar s&p shakers


Yay! Pufferfish for $5 - would've got all three that were there, but I didn't bring enough $$$ (who the hell goes to a flea market with only $35!?)

...and some old rum labels from France (plus a 1960's U.S. beer label I've only seen before on rusted cans)

Also found a long-sought-after 1956 ish of 'Whisper' gossip-rag detailing the sordid affair between James Dean and Vampira!!

Does anyone know anything about these particular rums? Taste? Still in production?
Looks like the same artist did both the Arome and Bobby labels.
