I have no problems at all about you reusing pics from my blog, but it would have been polite to have given me an acknowledgement. For other readers, you can see the story behind these old ads here http://zythophile.co.uk/2010/09/14/so-what-is-the-difference-between-barley-wine-and-old-ale/
I am sorry, I didn’t take them directly from your blog, I found them via a Google image search? Nice article and much better researched than my five minute effort.
