For the "old timers" Thunderball Tavern Sign Bahamas

I wish this place was open when I visited. All I could do was imagine how much fun was had here.

Yes, lots of fun was had there.
The mural was painted by a couple of (famous) German cartoonists, in about 1993/94.
I painted the roof sign in 1993.

My daughter's wedding reception was also held at Club Thunderball (March '94).

Great photos,thx.
Had good memories from that place in the mid-90s.
Last time we went there was November 2013 but it was closed.
