Jannetta's the Pierhead Cafe
Not exactly sure what the function of this object was, but it certainly advertises the wares at Janetta’s Pierhead Cafe. The Janetta family had operated their restaurant business on Boat Brae since the early 1930s. By the 1960s and 1970s it was affectionately known for some reason as Stinky’s, and for the youth of Newport it had become the place to hang out.
