    Irish251 i-lenticularis (NO GRAPHICS) What does an observer do? Observe?
  • Irish251 said:
    National Library of Ireland on The Commons He is the second crewman and would have had a mounted machine-gun, but the title derives, I think, from the Royal Flying Corps' original role which was general reconnaissance and spotting for ground artillery.

    The New Ross Boat Club had their 21st annual regatta in July of 1898 according to the Freeman's Journal newspaper.

    Megazoom - the inscription on the jug on the bottom step says 'Challenge Cup' which is odd because it's the only trophy which isn't a cup. Below that there's a year. It's not clear but I'd hazard a guess at 1893 or 1895.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    There's a photo of what I assume is Waterford Boat Club (despite the title) given their jackets here with what looks like the same Challenge Cup at the bottom, though turned the other way.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    It was deciphered as the Harbour Commissioners Challenge Cup, when it appeared before:

    This Similar Item shows her necklace has a portrait of a young boy on it, possibly little John (it's a bit blurred above) - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000591819 . Mary is holding a "Mouse" magazine! Having no luck finding the Globe Hotel or 20 The Quay on the old maps and streetview. Anybody?
