    The hat and the roof of the grandstand match this picture from the Illustrated London News of 26th August 1950.

    Edit: but I'm not sure about the collar.
    Illustrated London News - Saturday 26 August 1950

    President O'Kelly attended on Friday 11th August, arriving at 3 p.m. (Irish Independent - Saturday 12 August 1950)
  • John Spooner said:
    Judging from a picture in the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News - Wednesday 24 August 1949 (which includes the presidental collar, matching this time), The picture was taken at the 1949 event, and the military man on the right is Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands.

    how timely!- my best day at the Horse Show was the day the Leaving cert results came out --it was a Thursday; "Ladies Day"--and we phoned the school from a call box near the show rings-- we all got good news!

    This looks like so much fun. I noticed the hats right away. I wonder how much those behemoths weighed?

    Doubled as sunshades or umbrellas! And not a "Fascinator" in sight... :)

    Dublin Zoo is one of the worlds most successful breeders of Lions. At the time of this shot, they were housed in old style Victorian cages inside the Russell House, - a lovely building in itself. Their space was quite small, and you could get very close to the big cats. Thats when Zoos were for people, now Zoos are for animals.

    A beautiful creature, yet so dangerous! He has a humble look in his eyes, which we all know is very deceiving!
