## Caption

As Prohibition ended, this bar inside theoxfordhoteldenver was designed to look like the lounge on the Queen Mary (hence the name), then got a quick remodel decades later when the frieze with Hitler’s face - one of a dozen international roasts circling the walls - was deemed politically incorrect. 

In the 1960s, it was the headquarters for a group of carousers knows as the Evil Companions; in the ‘90s, it was discovered by hipsters. Today you’ll find all kinds of passengers hopping aboard a stools to bask in the red light and down classic martinis.
