Snavely, 366 Pa. 568 (1951), cited with approval in Ryan Estate, supra, that: “The law is well settled that a liquor license is not a property right, but only a purely personal privilege for a specific limited time, which is subject to termination by the Liquor Control Board for cause and which, in any event, terminates with the licensee’s life. | 1 | 1958–1958 |
