I have decided that the next phase of the project will be categorising signs according to the type of product advertised. This means that comparisons can be drawn between the approaches of different competing companies or the same company over time (e.g. Brymay vs Criterion Matches, or Gillette's back catalogue).

It would be great to start tagging photos in the pool so that those from specific categories can be quickly found. Please tag your own and, if you have time, others' photos against the following initial categories:

1. Booze, fags & matches (see video montage)
- Tag for photos is BoozeFagsMatches

2. Food & drink (see video montage)
- Tag for photos is FoodNDrink

3. Shoes, clothing, can include jewellery (see video montage)
- Tag for photos is ShoesClothing

4. Travel, transport, vehicles (see video montage)
- Tag for photos is TravelTransportVehicles

5. Household, furniture, pianos (see video montage)
- Tag for photos is HouseholdFurniturePianos

6. Services, banks, financial (see video montage)
- Tag for photos is ServicesBanksFinancial

7. Chemists, medical, health (see video montage)
- Tag for photos is ChemistsMedicalHealth

8. Sundry, razors, stationery (see video montage)
- Tag for photos is SundryRazorsStationery

9. Trades, builders, plumbers, handymen (see video montage)
- Tag for photos is TradesBuildersPlumbersHandymen

10. Media & Entertainment, for cinemas, newspapers, magazines etc (see video montage)
- Tag for photos is MediaCinemaEntertainment

11. Pets and feed (see video montage)
- Tag for photos is PetsFeed

12. Retailers, some fall within the existing categories but others seem to sell just about everything (see video montage)
- Tag for photos is ShopsRetailers

13. Hotels, cafes, restaurants (see video montage)
- Tag is HotelsCafesRestaurants
