Black-and-white pics of Sinatra abound, as do reproductions of World Series posters from the '40s, photos of WWII fighter planes, and "ads" like this one for a beer from a then-member of the Axis, which shows a Japanese girl in a kimono, and the words, "Sapporo, the only beer Yanks can drink with Tojo and Yamamoto." Stepping into Redendo's is like stepping into a scene out of Steven Spielberg's 1941. Why, the men's restroom has a "latrine" motif, with stills from Hogan's Heroes for company! Amazing. Open a Redendo's in central Phoenix, Anthony, and I may have to call the place home.
