Liquor sales by the drink were illegal in Iowa prior to 1963. Old Timers', like similar establishments attempted to regulate business by operating as a [[KEY CLUB]].

In 1975, two years after the death of Marg, Art closed the business which was then called Old Timer's Supper Club. The [[ELKS CLUB]] purchased the building.

The 1955 '''Dubuque City Directory''' listed Old Timer's Road for the Old Timer's Athletic & Country Club.

The 1966 through 1974 '''Dubuque City Directory''' listed 2699 John F. Kennedy Road.
