The Parnell monument was unveiled in July 1911, it looks nearly finished here.

The wagon with ads for a cinema/theatre on Gt. Brunswick St. is presumably for the Queen's Theatre on what is now Pearse St,, later temporary home of the Abbey. The Palace, later the Academy, was not a cinema until the 1920s. ’In England there is a growing demand for cinematograph entertainments’, announced Dublin’s Evening Mail in February 1908. ‘Every important town has its permanent “picture show”, and the Colonial Picture Combine see no reason why Ireland should not be adequately represented in this respect.’ The occasion of this statement was the opening of what was soon being advertised as the People’s Popular Picture Palace at the former Queen’s Theatre in Dublin’s Brunswick Street (now Pearse Street).

Nice things often come in pairs, be it vents or lower limbs. I also like the Fiat 600 with the L plates!
Stuart said:
I was wondering if they were vents above an old public toilet - am entirely open to correction on this?
NIE ZHU said:
nice,very nice!!!!!!

Stu, I was trying to figure that one out also but the nearest were down outside the Savoy as I recall and that would be a long way from there. I would have to say I agree with Patrick, the lower limbs on the good looking blonde make this an excellent shot for comparison!

A fine street photo, with The Mystery of the Bollard Perforations. Wikipedia tells us: Internally illuminated traffic bollards have been in existence throughout the United Kingdom since the 1930s,

Shay Murphy Excellent! Don't forget to let us see it - and watch out for low-flying buses... :)
Tammy said:
I would like to see the today shot as well. I am thinking there might be a lot of changes, but not sure....keep me posted please!
Swordscookie said:
Not sure what they were but they were hollow with holes across the top, as though they were vents for something below ground! I always like the monument and felt that the quote was a really powerful statement.

Sorry sister, but you hat is funny. May the Lord forgive me... Do you take confessions?
Irish251 said:
The "WZD" registration on the Ford Anglia dates from 1962/3 so that further confirms the likely date for the photo.

Irish251 Thanks, and have added Ford Anglia as a tag...
