Summary
Archie LaFreniere announced the sale of the Shamrock Bar after 36 years of proprietorship. Barbara Becker Anderson, Cyril Jimsak, and Vera Jean Jimsak were named as the new owners, with the transfer expected in June 1973.
Evidence and limits
The April notice establishes an announced business transfer and planned remodeling; the September–October advertisement supports later operation under new names. Neither supplies a deed, license, final closing date, or complete ownership history. The Shamrock Bar is not silently equated with the separately modeled 1945 Shamrock Inn.

- Beaver Beacon, September–October 1973, classified advertising, “Shamrock Bar.”Advertises the Shamrock Bar under the names Tim Jimsak and Barb Beckers, with food and beverage service; this supports operation after the planned transfer but does not establish the legal ownership or exact transfer date.
- Beaver Beacon, January 1974, classified advertising, “Shamrock Bar.”Advertises daily and Sunday hours, light lunches, and food and beverage service under Jim Timsak and Barb Beckers; it supports continued operation but not legal ownership, licensing, or a complete business history.
- Beaver Beacon, February 1974, classified advertising, “Shamrock Bar.”Again advertises the Shamrock Bar under Jim Timsak and Barb Beckers, with daily and Sunday hours, light lunches, and beer, wine, liquor, and food service; it supports continued operation but not legal ownership, licensing, or a complete business history.
