They also owned a yard round in North Woodside Road, plus stores and offices as well as renting out shops on that stretch of the main road.
Bobby I'm intrigued by that image of the beer mat since it refers to Murrays of "Edinburgh and Glasgow" and it's not their own brand - must have provided bottling services for other brewers. Do you mind if I download it?
I took some photos yesterday of some of the promotional material at the University Archives and none of it mentions Glasgow - all about Edinburgh. And it's their own brew that they advertise - "have a wee Murray". I would upload a couple - don't want to get in to bother over copyright issues though ?
