Companies on old advertising hoardings

[Man of Harveys]

Yes, I may be bored but I can't help but notice the old advertising hoardings on TGC's magnificent DVDs and clips, many of which are for companies or campaigns that no longer exist. Let's pay homage to these weird old companies that were everywhere in their day with a thread listing them.

I'll kick off with one of the biggest, at the back of the "North Terrace":

Not any Albion one, but when we were exiled in pikeyville, I always used to chuckle at "Mr Ham Man" behind the goal opposite to "our" end.

TSB Trustcard, Tamplins on the North Stand Roof. Amazingly for the time, there was one for Brighton and Hove Albion Financial Services in the last few seasons. Wonder how many calls they got?
