EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the early 1900s, showcases two prominent advertisements for Robertson's Whisky in Scotland. The first advertisement is located in Dundee, a city famed for its jute industry and maritime heritage, and the second in Aberdeen, the Granite City. The advertisements, created by William McKinnon & Co, feature bold, black lettering against a red background, effectively drawing the attention of passersby. The image offers a glimpse into the industrial landscape of Scotland during the Edwardian era. The iron works and manufacturing buildings in the background, with their tall chimneys billowing smoke, symbolize the country's thriving industrial sector. Robertson's Whisky, a popular Scottish spirit, was undoubtedly a significant part of the local culture and economy. The advertisements, with their grand scale and eye-catching design, reflect the competitive nature of the advertising industry during this period. Companies, like William McKinnon & Co, employed various strategies to distinguish their products and capture the market. This photograph not only showcases the industrial prowess of Scotland but also highlights the importance of advertising in promoting trade and commerce during the early 20th century.
