  Crane & Sons Ltd., Musical Instrument Manufacturers 40 Upper Sackville Street, Mentioned here. The trees here look older than today's photo. This photo was dated as circa 1911 definitely earlier than 1911.

  The history of Clerys began in May 1853 when Mc Swiney, Delany and Co. opened ‘The New or Palatial Mart' on the site of the present store in what was then Sackville Street. In 1883, the premises was taken over and renamed by M. J. Clery (d.1896) So After 1896 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clerys

  Hawksby's didn't advertise in Freeman's themselves, but F.W. Hawksby is listed in 1883 (28rd April) as a stockist of McMahon and Twohils' Irish-made silk and fur hats. Or, as the advertisement put it - "HATS! HATS!! HATS!!!"

  DannyM8 Yep pre-1911. No sign of Parnell Monument.

What's all this then?

  OSI 25" from 1907 at GeoHive.

• Niall McAuley said:

  From Wikipedia In 1899, the company introduced the trademark Oxo for a cheaper version; the origin of the name is unknown, but presumably comes from the word 'ox'. The first Oxo cubes were produced in 1910 and further increased Oxo's popularity, as the cubes were cheaper than the liquid.

  Intriguing - You would have to think that all the onlookers were not there by accident, it must have something to do with a well advertised event.

  A1 Sauce is from 1873, no help.

  ccferrie Thanks for location! Re the brilliantly named De Pews, could this have been taken before 1901 census, given that Harry's only 26. Bridget is a widow and keeping a boarding house in 1901, so might this have been her husband's enterprise?? Just think 26 is young to have your name over the door but could, as ever, be completely wrong! P.S. John Ward is coming through from the other side on your Thomas Curran link!
