    I dunno about an Ian Fleming connection, but James Joyce (no surprise I guess) mentions Moneypeny Corner in his Ulysses:
    Five tallwhitehatted sandwichmen between Monypeny's corner and the slab where Wolfe Tone's statue was not, eeled themselves turning H. E. L. Y.'S and plodded back as they had come.
    No walking advertisements or sandwich-board wearers to see here however. Although some of the view down South King Street is now (as per the obligatory street view) partially obscured by one of those "we'll pay for the bikes if you give us ad space" advertising hoardings.

    I checked the 1901 Thoms Directory, and R.W. Monypeny is listed at 52 & 53 Grafton Street as a "designer and embroiderer of art needlework, and white wood depot". [White wood goods, anybody?]. Monypeny lived at 13 Anneley Park, Rathmines. Robert Forbes at 54 Grafton Street is described as a "photographic artist". And at 54/55 are our old friends Kapp and Peterson (Alfred and Charles respectively). Down South King Street, before the Gaiety Theatre is the Horse Shoe Bar at no. 51 - proprietor Francis Pryor.

    I remember that corner, about thirty years later. Is it still deja vu if it is an earlier view of something you remember? -

    Same day? See poster in Moneypeny's window and position of Forbes' blinds - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000168731 Love these J. J. Clarke candid photos. Is she preggers, or is that a 'bird in her birdcage' ? ;-)

    O Neill made his Lucania bicycles in one of those buildings opposite the Gaiety. www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/10922005006/in/photolist-...

    And this fuller story, a few days later, including -
    " ... Larkin, disguised as an old man, with a false beard and decrepit gait, watched the detectives searching the hotel where he was staying. He subsequently addressed a meeting from the hotel balcony, and was recognised by the crowd. He submitted quietly to the police."

    Perhaps the article has confused two separate occasions. Larkin's Wikipedia article says ...
    " ... Larkin and others were arrested for sedition on 28 August, and he was released on bail later that day. Connolly told the authorities "I do not recognise the English government in Ireland at all. I do not even recognise the King except when I am compelled to do so."[22] On 30 August, a warrant for Larkin's arrest was put out, claiming he had again been seditious and had incited people to riot and to pillage shops. When a meeting called by Larkin for Sunday 31 August 1913 was proscribed, Constance Markievicz and her husband Casimir disguised Larkin in Casimir's frock coat and trousers and stage makeup and beard, and Nellie Gifford, who was unknown to the police, led him into William Martin Murphy's Imperial Hotel, pretending to be her stooped, deaf old clergyman uncle (to disguise his instantly recognisable Liverpool accent). Larkin tore off his beard inside the hotel and raced to a balcony, where he shouted his speech to the crowd below. The police – some 300 Royal Irish Constabulary reinforcing Dublin Metropolitan Police – savagely baton-charged the crowd, injuring between 400 and 600 people. MP Handel Booth, who was present, said that the police "behaved like men possessed. They drove the crowd into the side streets to meet other batches of the government's minions, wildly striking with their truncheons at everyone within reach ... The few roughs got away first, most respectable people left their hats and crawled away with bleeding heads. Kicking victims when prostrate was a settled part of the police programme." Larkin went into hiding, charged with incitement to breach the peace. Larkin was later re-arrested, charged with sedition and was handed a 7-month imprisonment. ...

    Or is this photo of his arrest on Sunday 31 August in the Imperial Hotel disguised as an old man?

    Someone will know.
