J. Ross Portrait Artist and Photographer (see note almost top left) -
Ross 54 Grafton Street, Dublin According to the company’s website, they were established in 1929. A photograph dated to 1930 is captioned: ‘Shadowgraph Portrait by J. Ross, 54 Grafton Street, Dublin’. There had been no photographer at this address in 1929, but ‘J. Ross, photographer’ was listed in 1931. By 1936, Ross Studios were at 3 St. Stephen’s Green. They were still there in 1974, but have since returned to Grafton Street, No 59, as Edmund Ross Studios.

Definitely post-1925 as there was a clothes shop above Noblett's in May 1924 (from advert in the Irish Independent). The hairdressers were (was?) advertising for staff from October 1925 in the same newspaper. The proprietor was Alfonso Palcic, and you can see his name faintly over the window proclaiming "Gentlemens Hair Dressing".

I dunno about an Ian Fleming connection, but James Joyce (no surprise I guess) mentions Moneypeny Corner in his Ulysses:
Five tallwhitehatted sandwichmen between Monypeny's corner and the slab where Wolfe Tone's statue was not, eeled themselves turning H. E. L. Y.'S and plodded back as they had come.
No walking advertisements or sandwich-board wearers to see here however. Although some of the view down South King Street is now (as per the obligatory street view) partially obscured by one of those "we'll pay for the bikes if you give us ad space" advertising hoardings. -

I checked the 1901 Thoms Directory, and R.W. Monypeny is listed at 52 & 53 Grafton Street as a "designer and embroiderer of art needlework, and white wood depot". [White wood goods, anybody?]. Monypeny lived at 13 Anneley Park, Rathmines. Robert Forbes at 54 Grafton Street is described as a "photographic artist". And at 54/55 are our old friends Kapp and Peterson (Alfred and Charles respectively).
Down South King Street, before the Gaiety Theatre is the Horse Shoe Bar at no. 51 - proprietor Francis Pryor. -

I remember that corner, about thirty years later. Is it still deja vu if it is an earlier view of something you remember? -

Same day? See poster in Moneypeny's window and position of Forbes' blinds - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000168731 Love these J. J. Clarke candid photos. Is she preggers, or is that a 'bird in her birdcage' ? ;-)
