This photo, posted recently by swi66, caught my attention -- especially what appears written and posted on the open door of what might be a Roaring Twenties speakeasy(?).

In a related note: Hotelier/casino owner/car enthusiast William Harrah had his mechanics/fabricators create a hybrid, Jeep Wagoneer/Ferrari, back in the 1970's, and commissioned a cloisonné badge with the image of Krazy Kat for same. He dubbed the creation "Jerrari". Leon Mandel wrote about it in Sports Car Graphic #3, Fall 1979

For those patient enough to research, try these key words: George Herriman, Krazy Kat, Jerrari
