Old White Rabbit Saloon, Lynchburg, Tennessee
c1892. Tintype, caption on backing below image, 11.5 x 16.3cm. Slight scuffs to surface, laid down on original presentation backing. Caption reads “The White Rabbit Saloon was a favourite gathering place where the men folks of Lynchburg could get together and talk about the old days and enjoy the companionship of one’s neighbours.” The White Rabbit Saloon was operated by Jack Daniel (c1849-1911) from about 1892, in addition to his distillery. The saloon was closed due to state-wide prohibition laws around 1910. Ironically, the distillery’s home county of Moore still prohibits the sale of alcoholic beverages. Ref: Wiki; Jack Daniel’s.
