Links edit

I would like to add a link to a website that I am in the process of creating (www.advertisingfashion.co.uk). It is a tribute & resource of 20th century advertising. Currently it includes advertising from the 1930 & 1960's. You will find quite a few adverts for Simpsons of Piccadilly from the 1960's. The site also includes many shops from old bond street, and other quality retail shops. Harrods, Moss Bros, Elizabeth Arden, Vogue, Debenhams & Freebody, Corot's, Chanel, Harris Tweed, Hunt & Roskell, Cartier, Lincoln Bennett & co, Lillywhites, Hawkes of Saville Row, Burberry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Linton1977 (talkcontribs) 20:23, 16 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Well, your website isn't up and running at the time of writing, but as the person who fleshed-out this article some time ago when it was a stub, I have to say that I did it mainly due to the connection with Jeremy Lloyd and Are You Being Served? Furthermore, I suggest that most people will probably navigate here having clicked the link that I put in the main AYBS? article, where I added mention of how the Simpsons store indirectly inspired that TV series. In my view, it is highly unlikely that *most* viewers of the Simpsons of Piccadily article will be interested in fashion, retailing or advertising - they will more likely be TV/ comedy fans who've stumbled across the article. Therefore, your site might not be that relevant as a link? See what others say, but it can't harm if you are able to link straight to the page containing the Simpsons advertising I guess.

I think you would be surprised what brings people here. I had forgotten about the AYBS connection until I came here. -- Beardo (talk) 17:09, 16 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Royal Warrants? edit

What's the position on the warrants now the Queen and the D of E are dead, and Charles is king? 2A00:23C8:3105:D801:D5E5:38C4:5BA4:7BC9 (talk) 13:07, 19 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

See List of royal warrant holders of the British royal family
Similarly, Keeping your "Royal" House in Order – Things to consider as a Royal Warrant holder says "On the death of a Grantor, all Royal Warrants issued by that Grantor become automatically void. Additionally, on the death of the monarch, the Royal Household conducts a review of the Royal Warrants that have been granted and are existing as at that date. Therefore, Warrant Holders should note the following in relation to the Royal Warrants that they hold:
  • they may continue to display the Royal Arms for up to two years, provided that there is no significant change within the company concerned"
