Reagan Barrett’s Tavern Bayonne, N.J.

Micky Barrett was the chairman of Hudson County Democrats for Reagan in 1980. Reagan actually visited the tavern during the 1980 campaign. He attracted such a crowd that people were standing on the bar. This 2 1/4 inch celluloid pictures the bar in Bayonne. It’s the much tougher version with green building. By the way, a few years later the building was purchased and converted to a Coptic Christian church. Norm Eavenson collection.
