  ...and looks bullet-proof too

• Joseph de Lange said:

  The invention was just a little before its time. These days Milwaukee makes a heated jacket powered by a battery.

  It takes balls to be the test subject of something like that!

• Drihan Bester said:

  haha cool, first bulletproof glass! where do you get all the invention pics from?

• Yvette Hoitink said:

  @-3han- All the photos and drawings are part of the collection of the Nationaal Archief, the national archives of the Netherlands, and Spaarnestad Photo. Many of them originally come from press agencies that have transferred their collections to us. The total collection contains over 13 million photos.

  Situations Vacant, Freeman's journal, May 3rd 1892: DRESSMAKING; wanted a first class Dressmaker, R. C.; must be able to cut and fit well, and take entire charge of workroom; none but competent person need apply; state references and lowest salary. Leonard Brothers, Belturbet.

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  Niall McAuley Thank you very much! Now both photos are on our Flickr Map.

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  John Spooner So 1899 is not wildly out then? And I'm assuming R.C. was Roman Catholic - you wouldn't specify religion in an ad nowadays!

• John Spooner said:

  In April 1894 they were looking for a 'stylish Millener, R.C. and good Saleswoman'' The ad for a dressmaker appeared again in Agust 1894, so presumably the successful applicant in 1892 had moved to pastures new. Still expanding in January 1897 DRESSES; Leonard Bros, Belturbet, require a pushing Salesman, RC, of good appearance and address, for their Dress Department; give full particulars at once. Address 8502, Freeman Office.
