    FOGRA - The three Marys are taking a little holiday over the Easter weekend, we will be away on manoeuvres on Good Friday and Easter Monday (to avoid the April fools’ jokes etc.)

    Normal service will resume on Tuesday 2nd April.

    I have a feeling that we have seen moustached and bearded man in the centre before but can’t think where. HELP!
  • Niall McAuley said:
    De Valera was in Geneva July 1936. On 2nd, he gave a speech on the failure of the League of Nations.

    Indeed, in the catalogue there is a note: Male, first on left side, was an Irish delegate for the League of nations in 1936, which can be assumed where this picture was taken.
