"The old Baily". Obviously another Scam, the spelling is wrong 

Note correct speeliung 

[Wittsend]

.... and lack of apostrophe   

.... though the registered trademark omits the apostrophe.

[Dentman]

Quite ruins the drink for me does that 

[Clifford Pope]

Some, but not all, Baileys drink labels have a mark making them appear to read Baileys'.
I don't have an actual one to inspect, but it appears to me as if the splodge at top right is in fact registered trade mark tag, not an apostrophe.

"Baileys was introduced in 1974 as the first Irish cream on the market. The Baileys name was granted permission by John Chesterman after W&A Gilbey asked to use the name from a restaurant that John Chesterman owned. The fictional R.A. Bailey signature was inspired by the Bailey's Hotel in London,[7][8] though the registered trademark omits the apostrophe. "
