Sid and Three Men in Karabis Tavern

Image

View across curved bar towards Sid and three other men at the Karabis tavern.

Two men standing behind Sid are resting glasses of beer on his stomach. The bartender is standing inside the bar on the left wearing a plastic hat and holding a cigarette in one hand and a cane in the other.
