  If the photo really was taken in September 1956 (a fine month by the way), the poster for the Dublin Horse Show is out of date should be taken down, as the event opened on Tuesday August 7 and continued up to and including Saturday August 11.

  A superb and incredibly interesting image - thank you for sharing this. A wonderful feat of civil engineering - how on earth did 'they' get those cranes to the top of the structure? Richard
