A reverse painted-on-glass advertising sign from Jno. T. Barbee & Co., Inc. of Louisville, KY. The scene on the sign an early log distillery house, marked with a crude, hand-lettered placard that reads "Old Barbee distillery, No. 32, 7 th District, Woodford Co., KY". An old man with a bottle and glass seated outside the door tempts two maidens fresh from the fields with a drink. Crates of whiskey appear in the foreground. It measures 38" x 30" in the frame.
