This card looks suspect to me, but I thought I would ask the experts here if it is part of any regular issue. Thanks in advance.

Fake. A few of these popped up on ebay last year.

edited to add: 1927 was in the middle of Prohibition. There were speakeasies, but would any establishment advertise as a bar if it was illegal to sell booze?

If the seller thought there was any chance it was legit, there would not be a 69.99 BIN on it.
