I've never seen a bottle. I know there is plenty of memorabilia out there. I'd say you'd find labels on eBay but it not something I've looked for.

Top Be honest I'm not sure if such a brand exists these days.

I couldn't find much on this old Belfast Brand which is long gone and was possibly only around for a very short time.

Here is an Advert or possibly a label.

This may be from a time (during or after) when Samuel Boyd was at the helm or even owned Bushmills.

Having spoken to Diageo archives I was told the distillery was destroyed by fire in the very early 1940s but very often old bottlings and paperwork are in existence.But thanks for help so far
