It is almost Bookman but the font is squarer and the serifs are smaller. Thanks!

Thanks Claude! To nit pick, because that is what we do here I'd say, Claude's pic font is slightly different. It is a little less square and has more and longer serifs. The 'C' in my 'CO.' for example, in addition to being squarer extends mostly downward whereas in Claude's it extends in both directions.

The 'C' is better, but the rest of the serifs are too long. Two thoughts. Perhaps the bar pic I posted is earlier, from the 1920's or earlier. OR it is a sign of worn dies or a worn bar which would result in softer letters throughout. I would be VERY happy to get an ID on the pics you posted, though.
