Old, enamel advertisements are much prized these days. People value their artwork and lettering that speaks of a different, simpler time. Some of these adverts have simply
remained in the place where they were first fixed, their continued presence a testament to the durability of the materials from which they were fashioned. Others are deliberately placed in prominent places to catch the eye. This facade in Ross on Wye, Herefordshire, is a riotous example of the latter. Interestingly, few of the advertised brands are still extant.
