Not a drop is sold till it's seven years old : press advert issued by John Jameson & Son Ltd, Dublin, c1927

            Using the strapline the company became famous for a 1927 press advert issued by Jameson's of Dublin, the well known Irish whiskey producer. The strikingly plain advert was produced by the London agency of W S Crawford and uses a simple graphic and striking lettering - the latter being bold enough to possibly suggest the work of Ashley Havinden who worked for many years at Crawford's and who developed a strong style of lettering techniques.
