    7 June 1924 was a Saturday. No moustaches! Is this because of Civic Guards regulations, or fashion in 1924?

  • Rory Sherlock said:
    The sergeant seated to the right of the officer (from our viewpoint) and the Garda standing immediately behind the officers are wearing a shield-shaped pins on their uniforms - probably indicative of their membership of the Pioneer Total Abstinence Association. Permission was given to PTTA members to wear their Pioneer Pin on their uniforms (according to message #8 in this link: irishconstabulary.com/the-civic-guard-t1554.html)

    This building on the corner Lower George's Street and Abbey Street was an RIC barracks when the GeoHive 25" map was surveyed...

    Who was capturing and who was captured in this photo?
  • Swordscookie said:
    Excellent shot once again NLI. As you said they do look relaxed though the future of the prisoner might be rather uncertain. He is a fine looking young man and there is almost a sense of relief in his expression. Patrick the men in uniform are Free State or Pro-treaty soldiers and the young prisoner is a Republican rebel or anti-treaty soldier. Both were probably on the same side some months earlier fighting against the British and now they were killing each other with equal ferocity in their disagreement as to how the war should have ended. The prisoner is one of the lucky ones because as usual in civil wars mercy was not always shown by either side.

    Michael Kelly Brilliant, thanks! Have shifted the location to near the corner of Glengarriff Parade...
  • Niall McAuley said:
    I think the rectangular white sign with a round emblem on it is a Labour Exchange sign like the one below:
