Actually it's ' liquor in the front, poker in the rear'. It's an old double entendre probably from the old american west. It's an obvious double meaning play on words bit describing both a saloon and how to best pleasure a woman sexually.
Back in Time Trading Post
SIGN a nice reprint of an old saloon sign. The sign is a heavy paper stock and reads 'Brass Rail Saloon', 'Liquor In Front Poker In Rear' and 'El Paso Texas'. It also has 'Ace Printing Co.' and '14 JUL 31'. The sign measures about 9 1/2 inches across and is about 6 1/4 inches wide. The paper has browning for an aged appearance. El Paso officially became part of the USA in 1845 when Texas joined the Union and was orginally known as Franklin.
