EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph from the early 1900s, showcasing two prominent Scottish companies, Archibald Aikman & Co Ltd and Alexander Jamieson & Co Ltd. The image, taken in 1905, presents a vibrant display of advertising posters that once adorned the streets of Scotland. On the left, the Archibald Aikman & Co Ltd poster promotes their Old Scotch Whiskies, inviting consumers to "Savour the Flavour" of their authentic Scottish spirit. The image of a well-dressed, mustachioed man, holding a bottle of whisky and a glass, is accompanied by the slogan "Auld Meg's Recommendation," suggesting a connection to the Scottish army and navy. The intricate design and bold typography are characteristic of the Edwardian era, making for an eye-catching advertisement. On the right, the Alexander Jamieson & Co Ltd poster showcases their textile manufacturing prowess. With the tagline "Quality and Service," the company highlights their commitment to producing top-notch textiles. The image of a factory in full production, with workers operating machinery and textiles being transported on conveyor belts, emphasizes their industrial capabilities. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the advertising landscape of early 20th-century Scotland, showcasing the thriving industries of whisky production and textile manufacturing. The combination of the two posters in this image provides a captivating contrast between the liquid gold of Old Scotch Whiskies and the solid textiles produced by Alexander Jamieson & Co Ltd.
