Synge Street Boys

from National Library of Ireland on The Commons

    It is a very nice photo and they do make for a good looking group. Uncle Gaybo is yer man if you could contact him, he would have been there around then unless I am mistaken. Maybe he is even in there. The right hand parting is not the only one, that lad in the plimsolls or "tackies" as we called them in Limerick was in danger of the ire of the Christian Brothers for wearing those in the front row.

    Second from right, middle row. Were's your jacket boy?! Great photo.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Swordscookie Swiftly checked an authoritative source (Wikipedia). Apparently Gay Byrne (famous Irish broadcaster) was born 5 August 1934, which'd make him only about 7 in 1941. I think that's a little younger than these chaps. And love tackies - have tagged for that...

    Nick Stewart I wonder did he get in trouble, what with it being photo day and all?
  • Swordscookie said:
    Gaybo's older brother who died a few years back (can't think of his name just now - AL?) was also in that school and also worked for RTE. The chap on the right on the middle row looks a lot like him. There's something about the chap 3rd from right in the front row next to the lad with the tackies that is very familiar and reminds me of a Barrister or politician.

Cooks Hill Public School - Class UK

    I find these school photos of the early 1950s fascinating. I was at school a decade later and our hairstyles and clothes were the same.
  • Mich said:
    It looks so much like my 2nd class in 1961, I can put names to about 90% of those faces.
  • Geoff Masters said:
    I have no idea Why that sign says Cook's Hill because it is NOT Cooks Hill. The photographer must have forgot to change it from being at Cook's Hill before going to Boolaroo. That class was at Boolaroo Public School, NSW. I know all of those kids and I can still name most of them now, over 60 years later.

Cleveland School of Art faculty and students

from Smithsonian Institution

    Very strange the way some are looking directly at the camera and others aren't. And the 3 guys at the back on the right look as if they've been photoshopped in.

    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called School group portrait, and we'd love to have this added to the group!
