    No young D. Toomey in 1911 in County Waterford. I like 10 year old Denis Toomey of Clonmel. His father, also Denis, is a Fireman at a Milk Factory
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Google maps says this Streetview shows Ballydurn Creamery, which a HAGS says closed in the 1960s, and was a satellite of Kilmeaden. The building does not appear on the 1930s Cassini map.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley he could well be, and in my opinion he could be 26 or 27 in this photo.
  • CASSIDY PHOTOGRAPHY said:
    Maybe the tip of a Montblanc fountain pen.
  • Swordscookie said:
    I seem to remember the "White Star pin". As I recall it was something to do with abstaining from the use of bad language. Our friend Stuart who collects such things will know.

    This sculpture looks very similar to "Tigre portant un paon
    à ses petits" by Auguste Nicolas Cain. also called "Tigresse portant un paon à ses petits." There's a copy in Newport, RI. RI - Newport: The Elms - Tigress Portant un Paon a ses Petits and another in Paris, France at Les Tuileries Paris (France), Tigresse portant un paon à ses petits (1873-76), de Auguste Nicolas Cain

    But perhaps the most likely one is in Central Park. See www.nycgovparks.org/parks/central-park/monuments/1547
    "Cast at the F. Bardienne Foundry in Paris, Tigress and Cubs was presented in 1867 to the Board of Commissioners of Central Park by twelve New York citizens, including artist and inventor Samuel F. B. Morse (1791–1872). The piece was placed in a wooded area on a rock outcropping near the lake. In 1934, it was relocated to the Central Park Zoo, and after the 1988 renovation of the zoo, it took its current position in a protected setting between the Intelligence Garden and the Tropical Zone."

    The location near the lake is marked by 23 in this 1871 map of Central Park Image from page 128 of
    Here's a crop with the location (number 23) at left center. First location of Tigress and Cubs sculpture in Central Park
  • Melissa (LOC P&P) said:
    Wow! Thanks for outlining what looks like a good theory. We'll make a note in our records that the sculpture may be located in Central Park.
