    The first of the islands to be electrified, in 1957 acccording to Wiki en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arranmore This cable must be for telephone, not power Who's the guy with both cine and a twin lens?

    Suck Diesel Similar to this Rollie? (in another Tynan Donegal shot)The model, the camera and the Raleigh All Steel!
  • Niall McAuley said:
    I wonder if that is Denis Tynan, and his wife took the picture?
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Suck Diesel They had a telephone cable from 1938 according to a report in the Dail on the Post & Telegraphs from 1939. A new telephone cable has also been laid between Arranmore Island and the mainland at Burtonport (Co. Donegal) in substitution of the wireless telegraph service previously operative which was in need of renewal. A public call office on the island will be opened shortly. So this is either actually from 1957, or it is a replacement telephone/power cable.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Make that 1956 for the electrification according to the ESB. It looks like there was an interesting article about the laying of that cable in the August 1956 edition of the REO (Rural Electrification Office) Report, but I can't locate a copy.

    I bet they have a singer, a bass player, a drummer, and the rest play guitar.

    Does this image need to be flipped as the writing on the tank in the apex of the roof looks back to front and on the cardboard box
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    George FitzPatrick Well spotted, corrected now.
  • Suck Diesel said:
    The bell bottoms confirm the date!

    Suck Diesel If we had super mega zoom we could look at the calendar. Looks like a photo of boats at a quayside.
