A streetcar named "Agita"

I find plenty of authentically weird postcards, but this one is a deliberate joke. That's a band on the porch, the sign is too neat & stylized, & "state highway" spells the coming end of convenient trolley service. Since Manasquan was an established seaside town, no one would be glad to see this eatery at the end of the line, which had never been extended over Manasquan River into Point Pleasant Beach. So I wonder what's the special occasion.
