1879–1961

It's flipped left to right.

I see the DBC on O'Connell Street so after 1901 - Archiseek article

And on the ballast office, the time ball is down, another Ulysses moment, Episode VIII, "Lestrogonians": Mr Bloom moved forward, raising his troubled eyes. Think no more about that. After one. Time ball on the ballast office is down. Dunsink time. Fascinating little book that is of sir Robert Ball's. Parallax. I never exactly understood. There's a priest. Could ask him. Par it's Greek: parallel, parallax. Met him pike hoses she called it till I told her about the transmigration. O rocks!

Ulysses, Episode 8, Bloom was here: He crossed at Nassau street corner and stood before the window of Yeates and Son, pricing the fieldglasses. Or will I drop into old Harris's and have a chat with young Sinclair? Wellmannered fellow. Probably at his lunch. Must get those old glasses of mine set right. Goerz lenses six guineas. Germans making their way everywhere. Sell on easy terms to capture trade. Undercutting. Might chance on a pair in the railway lost property office. Astonishing the things people leave behind them in trains and cloakrooms. What do they be thinking about? Women too. Incredible. Last year travelling to Ennis had to pick up that farmer's daughter's bag and hand it to her at Limerick junction. Unclaimed money too. There's a little watch up there on the roof of the bank to test those glasses by.

In today's photo we see Yeates shop still advertising Race Glasses in the window, and further along, "old Harris's".

Streetview. The pillar box is still there.

Flickr seems to think this photo was taken on May 20th 2091. Perhaps Dublin will have been converted to a Joycean theme park by then.

It looks like a ski resort, aside from the donkeys and no snow.

Probably somewhere in Donegal given Dr. Clarkes history. An especially interesting photograph with the chains linking the donkeys which I have never seen before though it does make sense. The one poor old ass would find those heavy rocks a great burden going uphill. Some fine beards on display for Movember and some very well shod boys given the era of the image. Would that indicate that it was winter even though the workman is in shirt sleeves? Where is Annie McGinley when you need her?

Odd building. No boxed soffits and low pitch roof. Strange layout too. Church, school, convent?? Three grown men and two asses bringing a rock for a walk.

O Mac Non boxed soffits quite common on buildings of that Victorian/Edwardian era. Also uses less wood so cost saving. It does look ecclesiastical.

If it's in Donegal, it's not heritage. NIAH doesn't seem to have it under any obvious category. Unless the date is post-1920, I suppose.
