Re Sports Poster - the top line says Gaelic Athletic Association From www.banteerhistory.ie/images/Hillary/1909.pdf Michael O Callaghan Inchemay and Arthur O Sullivan Nadd won All Ireland titles in the All Ireland sports held under GAA rules at Mallow on July 18th 1909. Michael O Callaghan won the four mile flat championship from M. Hourigan Ballingarry 2nd. On the last lap the Banteer man won going exceedingly strong and finished up with plenty to spare. Amid much excitement he received a standing ovation. Arthur O Sullivan won the mile championship from R. Barry Glanworth So looks like your 1909 is correct I would suggest August 1909

There's a Patrick O'Neill, Tailor, in Emmet Street in 1911. I don't see anything like this building there though.

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?

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.
