However, this didn’t stop speakeasy owners from running their illegal underground business. A speakeasy was a discreet place for the illegal sale and consumption of alcoholic drinks. These speakeasies wanted to remain incognito from the feds so they were underground or had a hidden door – you couldn’t just knock on the door and say “Joe sent me”. It was a usual routine to go to a telephone booth across the street from the speakeasy and tell the owner to let you in.</p><p>Prohibition: Beer</p><p>This is a Budweiser beer bottle from 1933, during the Prohibition.
