Mark description

The mark consists of a two-part label. The top part of the label is a symmetrical four-sided figure with straight bottom and sides and a rounded top edge. The figure is slightly wider at the top than at the bottom. At the top and bottom of the top label are wider borders, and inside that are four thin borders that extend all the way around the top label. Inside the borders, at the top, is the word "JAMESON". The letters are assembled to form an arch in large capital letters. Underneath that is a shield. The top edge of the shield extends out in points to the left and right, and the bottom edge of the shield comes to a point in the center. The shield is crossed diagonally by two bands in an "X" shape. Overlapping the upper quadrant of the shield is a triple-masted sail boat. In the left and right quadrants formed by the "X" is an anchor on each side. In the bottom quadrant is a star. Under the shield is a ribbon or banner with the words "SINE METU." Below the shield and ribbon are the words "TRIPLE DISTILLED" in script, and below that a wide rectangle with two thin borders around the edges. Below that is a round seal with two thin borders around the outer edge and another border around the center of the seal. Between the outer and inner borders are the words "JOHN JAMESON & SON LIMITED," and in the inner border are the initials "JJ&S." Extending out from the right side of the seal is a striped ribbon extending to the right border of the label. There are numerous thin stripes and two wider stripes closer to the top and bottom edges of the ribbon. On the left side of the ribbon, close to the seal, are the words "JOHN JAMESON & SON" in script. The bottom part of the two-part label consists of a narrow rectangle with three bands each at the top and bottom edges. The outermost band is somewhat wider, and the two inner bands are narrower. On the left side of the rectangle are two human figures standing on a line, facing one other, and each carrying a barrel on his shoulder. At the center of the rectangle, overlapping the upper and lower edges, is a circle which has a somewhat wide outer border, and four narrow inner borders. Inside the circle is the date "1780" with the word "ESTABLISHED" written in arched lettering above the date and in inverted arched lettering below the date.
