April 19, 1964

    Such an unusual shot for a film photograph? It is quite different in its approach and composition to most and very interesting for that reason. I was visiting Galway a lot around then but was more interested in rivers and rugby pitches so I can't help with Mullins but the boy reminds me of myself just a few years earlier.

    A butchers shop, I think - so the kid is dreaming of mince. A look at Google maps shows that the building is intact but painted a startling lime green - and home to a creperie called Zatsuma. A creperie in Galway City. Who'd have guessed that in 1964?

    John Lord Mince, eh? That's what I get for stereotyping children - thinking of a sweet tooth instead of carnivorous tendencies...

    This is as close as I can get in Streetview.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley Oh don't talk to me! Spent a good 5 minutes trying to get the same view - slithering up and down Shop Street, muttering ominously that if Mr O'Dea could do it, then so could I. Shamefacedly gave up, but I am bloodied but unbowed. Virtual sticky bun (hot from the wholly imaginary NLI oven) for anyone who can get the same view in Streetview...

Greenland in the late 19th-early 20th century

    Very strange tent shape, I've never seen anything like that before! They were probably very effective in high wind?
  • National Museum of Denmark said:
    Swordscookie: Our senior researcher Martin Appelt says "This type of tent was standard in East Greenland, at least from the early 19th century AD. I am not sure about the wind stability, but I would imagine that it would have been quite suitable for handling some of the strongest winds in the World, which has always part of life especially in this part of Greenland. There are at least two benefits to this particular construction, i.e. that it demands a minimum of wood for the frame (two poles and a cross piece), and it is very easily erected." :-)
