Call Number   X-293
Summary   Four men, saloonkeepers and possibly owners, pose behind a long wooden bar in this interior view of a saloon, possibly Hyman's in Leadville, Colorado. The men on the ends wear waiter's jackets while the two center men wear vests and ties, one with a jacket and hat. A man in a three piece suit, bow tie and hat leans on the front of the bar with one foot on the rail. Next to him on the bar is a punch bowl with cups turned upside down. The tall backbar has a mirror and is ornately carved.
  A partition wall with frosted chip glass and swinging doors separates the bar from the entrance. Shelves of liquor bottles and several mounted deer heads can be seen through the doorway of the partition wall.
Date   [between 1883 and 1889].
