Short description: A nostalgic RareGer heritage print celebrating the famous McDaid's bottling works of Ramelton and the legendary Football Special soft drink.

Product description: From the quays of Ramelton, County Donegal, the McDaid family built one of Ireland's best-loved bottling businesses. Their iconic Football Special became a favourite at football matches, family gatherings, schools and celebrations across Donegal and beyond.

This beautifully illustrated RareGer print remembers the old bottling plant, the delivery lorries, glass bottles and the hardworking people whose craftsmanship created a true Donegal tradition. More than a soft drink, McDaid's became a taste of home and a cherished part of local history.

A perfect addition to the Donegal Nostalgia Collection for anyone who remembers the sights, sounds and flavours of old Ireland.
