    Changes since Bona Fide Travellers: The DBC. The tall electric lights (1892 until 1903-1910 sometime). Where is the Gunpowder office signage gone? Railings around the O'Connell monument. Electric trams. Straw hats! Light coloured clothes. Ladies on bikes.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    And as DannyM8 spotted, a dust cart spraying the street! We've never captured one of those in action before...

    Summer I would think, the few parasols are for the sun rather than the rain. Strong shadows - someone will be able to tell the date and time of day!

    DannyM8 Someone thinks 14:43 (?) from the clock (see note). Not 100% sure.

Where is the Clock? + Our 2,000th Photograph on Flickr Commons

    Woo Hoo! Congratulations on the first 2,000 Flickr photos. No clock and no dog ...
  • guliolopez said:
    Congrats on the milestone! The exhibition sounds great - will fill-in the survey shortly. Not sure when the clock was first installed, but this image must surely be mid-1920s based on fashion alone (and certainly after 1922 as that's when the Clery's building was built/rebuilt) . Also fascinating to me (and may or may not be relevant to date) is that it looks like the Japanese "rising sun" flag is flying above Clery's. Which seems very unusual. As I always thought that was a military/naval ensign....

    From our old favourite, Archiseek (archiseek.com/forum/topic/dublin-street-lighting/): 1920-23 During this period, new rather bizarre looking electric lamps were attached to the swan-neck posts, replacing the earlier globes. Some of these can be seen swinging loosely in the wind in some footage. They survived right up till the end of these grand post's lives.

    Huzzah on 2,000 photos, and the probably 20,000 or more conversations about them! This has to be after August 1922, as the Irish Indo on Saturday, 5 August has a beautiful advert announcing...
    We are glad to announce that our New Building on the old site in Lower O'Connell Street is sufficiently far advanced [rebuilding after 1916 Rising bombardment] for us to open it to our customers and the public on Wednesday August 9th ... NEW CLERY'S is the last word in shopping comfort. We mean to make it - The Shopping Centre of Ireland.
    And the beautiful illustration (not photo) in the ad has no clock!

    "In the Heart of the Hibernian Metropolis BEFORE NELSON'S PILLAR TRAILS SLOWED, SHUNTED, CHANGED TROLLEY, started for Blackrock, Kingstown and Dalkey, Clonskea, Rathgar and Terenure, Palmerston park and upper Rathmines, Sandymount Green, Rathmines, Ringsend and Sandymount Tower, Harold's Cross. The hoarse Dublin United Tramway Company's timekeeper bawled them off: -- Rathgar and Terenure! -- Come on, Sandymount Green! Right and left parallel clanging ringing a doubledecker and a singledeck moved from their railheads, swerved to the down line, glided parallel. -- Start, Palmerston park!" Ulysses, the Aeolus episode. I think TRAILS should be TRAMS
  • Ben Fagan said:
    Trams bearing advertisements from the 1930s anyway.

    Okay, campers, rise and shine, and don't forget your booties 'cause it's cooooold out there today.
