Hatter's tea party (not so Mad!)

  • Stuart said:
    Yes indeed....the very thought when I first saw this pic...what an amazing array of diffferent caps and hats and an interesting photograph too. Thank you. Stuart.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Stuart You're very welcome!
  • Tammy said:
    looks like the photographer posed them perfectly, then left that empty chair in the foreground which is distracting....himmm
  • Sheila Ryan said:
    It's actually the empty chair that really makes this for me.
  • John Spooner said:
    An earlier Lord Clonbrock (I don't know his number, but born 1807)., played 5 first class cricket matches, at least twice for England. His first-class batting average was 1.62. A gentleman rather than a player. www.espncricinfo.com/england/content/player/11645.html

    ancestry dot com suggests Ethel lived until 1978! Not sure where they sourced that.

    P appears to be for Pansy.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Could be something in the Births, marriages and Deaths column of the Irish Times, November 23rd 1978 (page 24 or 30).
  • Niall McAuley said:
    L is for Lily
  • derangedlemur said:
    Niall McAuley are you sure? L is for some 4 letter word but neither the word nor the plant looks much like a lily. Edit: Though according to wikipedia, the only other 4-letter garden plants beginning with L are Leea and Luma, neither of which look remotely like that (being bushes), so I guess it must be Lily.

    and no "coat", of course the clothes they had on were probably heavy and warm!
  • Marta said:
    Beautiful photography !!!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Marta It was various members of the Dillon family of Clonbrock Estate who took all of the Clonbrock photos in our collections. They were incredibly keen and gifted early amateur photographers.
