Know the place Very well! My mom and dad, Tony and Linda Shrum owned it for around 20 years.Dont know why that says i live in S.F. Calif. I live in Okc,Ok. Originally was the pitcher house. Mom and dad had olde anchor shirts (4 of em) made up, I still got 3 of em from the 1980s. Dad started the I.O.O.B. there. International Order of Old Bastards & Bastardettes.Mom sold the place in 1993 to Jack Smith & Joe Hooker. I also have 5 of the original Olde Anchor Heavy thick glass Coors pitchers with the Olde Anchor name, address and Anchor pic on them, and my dads 1957 Gibson Sunburst Big Body 6 string electric Guitar with the fender Princeton Reverb Amp he used to play for the customers in there on IOOB nights.
