apples

I love her face and her hat. I'd buy a bag of apples from her.

Looks like an interesting lady to talk with, and they look like fine apples.

Fossett's Circus is still going www.fossettscircus.com/ Not so the "News of the World".

But for the fact that it states the photo was taken in 1969 I would have dated it around 1963 because of the heading 'Christine' on the News of the World poster. Christine Keeler was daily news in 1963.

Wrestling Spectacular must be Mick MacManus! Not the ears!

500 apples would make a couple of gallons, not a pint. Even if they were crab apples it would still be a few pints.

It says in the census he lived in O'Connell Street, so it's presumably here: maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V2,625421,593310,11,9 Edit: Or possibly not. No matter how you count it, I don't think you'd get Brewery Lodge to be house 16, especially since the buildings return says it's a shop. Mind you, I don't see anything else marked as either a brewery, a bottling plant, or a jam factory (his other occupations), so maybe this is it and he just lives over the shop instead of in a swanky house.

Here we go. It appears from this related photo (catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000591865) that it's here: maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V2,625603,593223,11,9

12 November 1906 was a Monday.

derangedlemur Looking at your 25" link, we are looking West, the big house behind the wall must be Brewery Lodge (now gone) and the chimneys are Saint Brigid's Well Brewery. The brewery gate arch is still standing, from 1862 (streetview).

I'll have a dry martini please ... or maybe it has not been invented yet? The sun is well over the yard-arm where I am.

It's a long way from the ferry to Holyhead! :-)

Looks like it must be 1860-1865 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Great_Eastern The Sept 1861 voyage looks like a contender - "On the second day out [from Liverpool] the wind increased to gale force, causing the ship to roll heavily"

Although, the captain of the ship from 1866-78, during its cable-laying years, was a Wicklow man en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Halpin It seems odd that the saloon and dining saloon would be so luxuriously appointed for that kind of work though.

ccferrie The absolute earliest this could be is 1865, as Lawrence didn't set up in business until then. But logistically speaking, it was probably at least a few years after that. (Robert French, photographer on three-quarters of our Lawrence Collection didn't even start working for William Lawrence until 1880-ish....)
