Funny, Bull Durham cigarettes were my first thought with this sign. I thought maybe it was a previous motto photo.

Betting this is from after the war.  It was very common for cigarette/pipe/cigar companies to use animals to promote their products.  Even was a company Bull Durham tobacco.

Very novel and would do well for tobacciana collectors!!!

I agree with a cane in it's mouth. The picture is not great. That's the problem. It's not clear when you blow it up.

I took this last summer and it was a quick pic on my way out. Now that you mention it, maybe it is a cockatoo or parrot. For some reason I had a rooster in my head. I will see her tonight and will ask her. Now it's bugging me. :)

Ok saw friend tonight. She says bull is smoking a cigar, and rooster (yes rooster) is smoking a cigarette that is in a cigarette holder, which is why it looks so long. I asked her if she is certain it is a rooster and she said yes, but that she will look again to make certain. She also said she will send me a new photo of it. After our conversation was finished we sat down on the couch and smoked some weed.
