Looking through some old photos I came across this.
From about 1966. This poster was screen printed by ( DC? Greer ) of Partick Cross Glasgow. Family friends.
I remember the turpentine smell and watching the amazing skills of the commercial artist with paintbrush and stencil. #OldGlasgow #Partick

A rather unusual inscription around a doorbell on a grand Victorian townhouse in the West End of Glasgow.

Apparently, this was once a common feature of door bells, and was even parodied by A.A. Milne in Winnie the Pooh. However, this is the only surviving example I've ever come across in Glasgow.

I love the inscription around this old door bell on a rather grand townhouse in the West End of Glasgow.
