pellethepoet Not forgetting this one of yours! Trying to find out when the Fry/Freeman building was built (I have a feeling it was an early 'skyscraper').
pellethepoet said:
beachcomber australia Ha! I did forget. I knew I'd seen a much closer comparison - I didn't think of looking in my own collection!

Crane & Sons Ltd., Musical Instrument Manufacturers 40 Upper Sackville Street, Mentioned here. The trees here look older than today's photo. This photo was dated as circa 1911 definitely earlier than 1911.

The history of Clerys began in May 1853 when Mc Swiney, Delany and Co. opened ‘The New or Palatial Mart' on the site of the present store in what was then Sackville Street. In 1883, the premises was taken over and renamed by M. J. Clery (d.1896) So After 1896 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clerys

Hawksby's didn't advertise in Freeman's themselves, but F.W. Hawksby is listed in 1883 (28rd April) as a stockist of McMahon and Twohils' Irish-made silk and fur hats. Or, as the advertisement put it - "HATS! HATS!! HATS!!!"

DannyM8 Yep pre-1911. No sign of Parnell Monument.
