SJ Candidate City Landmark

San Jose’s premier place for snooker since 1947 (or thereabouts). Some locals remember the joint as Westside Joe’s. The neon sign and star appear to be original. When the sign is working, the light bulbs in the star flash. Bets are that the 8-Ball was a later accoutrement. The neon trim along the roofline was also a later addition.
