There was a lot of meat eaten in those days and thats for sure. What a display of corpses, almost ghoulish!!! Imagine how the EC bureaucrats and the health inspectorate would react to a display like that today??

They would have absolute caniptions! However, at least this array of meat was outside in December, not in high summer...

At first glance..... I saw women's undergarments! I can get away with it since I am old enough to have seen corsets! great series of photos.

I see what you mean Granny! They have that pulled in for all your worth look about them and the ribs look like the laces to tighten them up!!!!

grannymardotcom Swordscookie Honestly, the two of you discussing women's nether garments in the middle of the day! Shameless... :D

You wouldn't get away with hanging the animals outside a shop these days!

I think this might be "claire's ear piercing" now, judging by some of the wood, drainpipe, and stonework on "sasha" to the left. Or not? Google Street View - g.co/maps/n573p

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.
John Lord said:
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...
