    Woo Hoo! Congratulations on the first 2,000 Flickr photos. No clock and no dog ...

    Congrats on the milestone! The exhibition sounds great - will fill-in the survey shortly. Not sure when the clock was first installed, but this image must surely be mid-1920s based on fashion alone (and certainly after 1922 as that's when the Clery's building was built/rebuilt) . Also fascinating to me (and may or may not be relevant to date) is that it looks like the Japanese "rising sun" flag is flying above Clery's. Which seems very unusual.

    From our old favourite, Archiseek (archiseek.com/forum/topic/dublin-street-lighting/): 1920-23 During this period, new rather bizarre looking electric lamps were attached to the swan-neck posts, replacing the earlier globes. Some of these can be seen swinging loosely in the wind in some footage. They survived right up till the end of these grand post's lives.

    Huzzah on 2,000 photos, and the probably 20,000 or more conversations about them! This has to be after August 1922, as the Irish Indo on Saturday, 5 August has a beautiful advert announcing...
    We are glad to announce that our New Building on the old site in Lower O'Connell Street is sufficiently far advanced [rebuilding after 1916 Rising bombardment] for us to open it to our customers and the public on Wednesday August 9th ... NEW CLERY'S is the last word in shopping comfort. We mean to make it - The Shopping Centre of Ireland.
    And the beautiful illustration (not photo) in the ad has no clock!

    Mr M. Melvin (or is it Monsieur Melvin? probably not) advertised the Moy Hotel in Mayo Examiner - Monday 13 July 1868. This is the earliest mention I could find in the BNA

    The building itself has a rich history, having previously served as part of the British garrison in Ballina during the 1798 rebellion and later as a townhouse owned by Brig-General Oliver Paget Bourke

    Mr French / Lawrence was up high on something; probably not the Penneys building across the street.
