It is a simple bar which carries the iconic logo from the Bisbee Mining Company.

Founded as a Copper, Gold and Silver mining town in 1880, the quaint town of Bisbee is located 90 miles southeast of Tucson, Arizona. It produced nearly three million ounces of Gold, along with Copper, Silver, Lead and Zinc, in the early 20th century, and was once referred to as "the Queen of Copper Camps". By 1910, its population boomed and was the largest community between St. Louis and San Francisco.

The mine opened in 1877 and eventually closed when Phelps Dodge discontinued mining operations in Bisbee in the mid-1970’s. The Queen Mine opened once again as a tour for visitors in 1976, nearly 100 years after the mine originally opened.
