Brunswick MO Hotel (RPPC, ca. 1920) Prohibition

This real photo postcard shows the Brunswick Hotel in Brunswick, Missouri, "A. C. Salter, Prop." The hotel was right next to the railroad tracks, so I assume that it was also close to the depot. In that case, it may well have been the hotel that was "known as the Depot Hotel, immediately across the street, north of the station of the Wabash Railroad." It was "across an alley therefrom," in "a small private garage used by defendant," that, "On or about September 15, 1922," A. C. Salter poured "two drinks of intoxicating liquor . . . from a certain quart bottle" and sold them to a sheriff's deputy and another witness for 50 cents,  and "thereafter one of the purchasers purchased a small bottle of liquor, which was poured from the same bottle," for $2. As a result, Salter was charged with and later convicted of "selling two drinks of intoxicating liquor, contrary to the prohibition law" (State v. Salter, Kansas City Court of Appeals, Dec. 3, 1923).
