Another - earlier - photo of Owlsburg (or Van's, whichever you prefer)
Owlsburg Tavern, or Van's, which ever you prefer, appears to be one of the stories of the year on the Icon. It received over 6,000 Facebook recognitions in a recent story, reaching viewers all the way to eastern Europe.
For the many Icon fans of the establishment at the corner of State Route 235 and Lincoln Highway, here's an earlier photo from the Icon archives.
This is from the rear - and you can see a hand pump, trash burning pit and even a steeple, which apparantly is another story all by itself. This photo was taken in the early 1970s.
In the meantime, we'll welcome viewers comments.
