My grandfather was an inspector on the trams, but I have a feeling he started out as a conductor. A bit of a stretch, but it might even be him centre frame. Great photo.

In the foreground are white lines painted on the cobblestones, or they could be white stones set into the road. Is this a first for these old NLI photos?

Couldn't find any mention of the name Retz in the census for 1901 or 1911, but have found the phone number for George Retz, Pork Butcher, in the 1913 phone directory.

It is so interesting to see so many women in the design studio. So many in fact, that I wonder if they are just colouring in or hatching something, rather than doing design work? If there are a lot of women, you just know they aren't being paid much.

Among the Smith-Barry tenants evicted from James Street on Tuesday 17th December 1889 (according to Freeman's the following day)
Patrick Cleary, draper Michael Kennedy, provision store James Davis, stationer Danl(sic) Ryan, victualler Jas Murray, boot manufacturer Michael Cross, draper Widow Bennett, harness maker
We know that Michael Cross and Patrick Cleary ended up in New Tipperary. I wonder about the others.

There's a Boot man in the arcade, nearest shop on the right hand side of the other shot, I can't read the poster in the window, though. Royal Boots? Boland Boots?
