    Lovely bit of history!

    It seems to be a popular point for taking pictures:

    Dublin – Sackville Street (now O'Connell Street) around 1900

    This one I found in a book. The tram tracks are a bit different.

    Surprisingly, the "Gun Powder Office" survived the Rising without being shelled or blown up by its own contents getting too hot. ;-) By 1916 the "Kelly's Fishing Tackle Manufactory" on the lower signage had become "M. Kelly & Sons Fishing Tackle", and was moved up to top billing on the wall, while the Gun Powder Office lettering got smaller and lower-down on the building.

    What a super shot! There is so much going on here you could stare at it for ever and find new things all the time. The jewellers on the corner of Eden Quay "Hopkins and Hopkins late of Law and Sons were there right up to the mid '70's at least. See all the dung on the street (great for roses) and the man pushing the handcart with the milk churn? Brilliant!

Up Cork, Derry, Kerry, Offaly!

    I remember my mom shouting out "Up Sligo!" Now I know what she was talking about. Thank you. Great pic!

    Interesting to note that both of the Wynne images you've uploaded have a magenta cast. Is there a specific reason for this? I have a fading print of this photograph in the family album, which I thought of uploading to my stream, but you beat me to it. :-)
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Oh sorry, Mike! I was just so eager to get it up there. Really don't know about the magenta cast - many of our Wynne photos have it, and I love it personally...
  • Mike Hannon said:
    No need to apologise at all. It's one of those photos I was sure you'd have, and in far superior quality to the print I have. The remainder of the photographs I have are of the immediate Wynne family members, and then my Great-grandfathers offspring, so I hope to see many more of T.J's photos here.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Well, if you're uploading any of the family members to your own stream, let's know - would love to see what they looked like...
  • Mike Hannon said:
    Haha! I don't think I'll go that far yet, as I only have the free account on here, and I'm limited to 200 photos. I did come across two postcards from the era that I've scanned and posted, and though the photographs aren't credited to Thomas, they may be of interest.......
