UKNM: Any I-Marketing historians out there?

[Paul English]

I'm looking for two pieces of information relating to ancient Internet 

advertising history.


1) When and where did the first banner ad appear on the Internet 

(HotWired 1994?). What was being advertised? Who produced it? Is it 

available somewhere?


2) When and where did the first banner ad appear (HotWired 1994?) in 

Europe (or in a specific European country). What was being advertised?  

Who produced it? Is it available somewhere?


I'd be happy to buy a fine Trappist ale for anyone with the right answer 

to either question (next time you're in Brussels).


Cheers, 

Paul
