HISTORIC PORTSMOUTH #127

In the battle of the brands, Portsmouth Ale tycoon Frank Jones was king. Once touted as the biggest brewer in the world, Jones planted his logo everywhere. Here the brawny "Frank Jones Rope Pulling Team" poses for a publicity photo. The official rope and harness for the competition are in the foreground.
