    A couple of the horses at the back are a bit camera shy too. I love how photos of the public in this period attract such attention from the people.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O'Gorman_Coach_Builders#Glass_negat... Have a look at the O'Gorman Coach Builders page on Wikipedia - it mentions flickr and the NLI In April 1922 and April 1934, high quality 'Glass negative' photographs, were taken by A H Poole & Co. In 2012, some were placed on the internet by the National Library of Ireland (NLI).[5] They are of vehicles being built at Prior Park garage and the shop front in Parnell Street. They include a picture of J.F.O'Gorman, the directors, workers, the factory premises, Prior Park house and various machinery in the workshop. These photographs are also on Flickr and have created a renewed interest in the business operation.[6][7][8]

    Conor1970 I've noticed a weird phenomenon that early tram and omnibus passengers seemed camera shy also. It turns up in a lot of our photos, though of course not all of them come to mind now that I need to remember them to show you, but along the lines of this one!

    HI T2 this registration is out of the normal format for Ireland? Tipperary South Riding CC: HI then GI HI 1 to HI 9999 (Dec 1903 - Sep 1954).

    DannyM8 All publicity is good publicity! Would imagine that was Desktop 123 who did a lot of work and contributed a ton of information on the O'Gorman family and their operation? I'd be delighted that any photos we post here create "renewed interest" in all sorts of places, people, dogs...

    Peter Denton Peter, Mr Goff was well versed in the wayward ways of motor car tyres! We have other pics of him at the wheel: catalogue.nli.ie/Search/Results?lookfor=goff+motor&ty...
