The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
The paintings shown in the link look quite modern. As does yours, Peter. Those paintings are different from the ones in the other albergue behind the petrol station, though similar in some ways.
 
€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.
