DescriptionThe white restaurant sign of McGrath's Bar and Grill is sitting in a wooden casket that has been placed inside a white carriage "hearse". A man in a dark suit is standing on the steps of the carriage as a second man sits in the driving seat of the carriage. Two white horses are waiting to pull the carriage in the mock-funeral procession for the sign. They are parked next to Civic Plaza on Tijeras Avenue in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
