Description
English:

The Our House saloon opened around 1898 at the corner of Washington Street and Occidental Avenue in Seattle. Owner John B. Rogers did an enormous business during the Gold Rush selling drinks to men passing through Seattle on their way to the Klondike, and Our House became one of the famous saloons in the city. The Seattle city directories list the Our House Saloon, offering "Bar, Cafe, Billiards, and Pool," through the 1905 directory. Beginn ing in 1906, the business is listed as Our House Wine & Liquor Co. Inc. (as printed on this Maryland Banner Rye label), with Bacher and Grimminger as the proprietors. Our House survived Prohibition by serving soft drinks, then stayed in business as a tavern until the late 1950s.

Handwritten on back of label: since 1899 / soft drinks during Prohibition / tavern of that name there until 1959
