    I wonder is this related to the Emmet Street unpleasentness we had a couple of years ago. www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/8558487905/

    There's a Patrick O'Neill, Tailor, in Emmet Street in 1911. I don't see anything like this building there though.
  • Swordscookie said:
    On the lozenge shaped posters there is mention of "O'Neills, William O'Brien Street, Tipperary"????? I love this shot, a great selection of items on display on what appears to be a wet day with no regard for the damp on the cotton and wool products! The bustle on the lady in the poster might give a clue as to the date?
  • derangedlemur said:
    If it's advertising O'Brien Street, then this is presumably elsewhere. Maybe it's one of the buildings in the Marketplace.

    If this building was also known as the "Irish House" in Tipperary (as the signs suggest), then it appears to have been destroyed by British Forces in the War of Independence in reprisal for an ambush at Lisnagaul in Nov 1920. Compensation for the loss was later discussed in the Dáil in 1925: href="http://oireachtasdebates.oireachtas.ie/debates%20authoring/debateswebpack.nsf/takes/dail1925061800007"rel="nofollow">oireachtasdebates.oireachtas.ie/debates%20authoring/debat... EDIT: Since B-59 has found images of the 'old' Irish House and the 'new' Irish House in the Pall Mall Gazette (see below), we can now suggest that it was the three-storey Irish House on Main Street that was destroyed in November 1920, not the building in the image above.

We sell the celebrated Falcon Make Headwear

    Can't find much for the Falcon hats. Battersby was later merged into the Associated British Hat Manufacturers, per Wikipedia. With the whole organization closing in 1997, Mr. Brennan still has about another good 70 yrs ahead of him selling hats :)

    Can't you imagine the rush to get them all indoors at the first hint of rain! Love the two bits immediately above his head!

    12/6 for a fedora. These days they're about EUR 180. How does that compare, taking inflation into account?

    My favourite thing is the "pegs" to straighten the piles of hat boxes against the slope of Barronstrand Street!
