      premises and persons or governmental units named in the application
      and shall not be transferable or assignable except with the written
      approval of the department, obtained prior to the purchase of the
      facility involved.  Licenses shall be posted in a conspicuous place
      on the licensed premises as prescribed by regulation of the
