Is that the same little lady as in the previous Powers posting.Maybe a member of the family?.

Yes!! The prize of (virtual) Christmas pudding goes to philip ward !! It is the same girl, as suggested before - maybe a daughter of the Powers... Either way, it allows us to date Hamburg! Urgent! to 1929, rather than somewhere between 1926 and 1939... :)

Rather an odd outfit for the driver. No wonder he looks out of sorts. First thing I thought when I saw the young lady was that we had seen her before in the Hamburg Urgent shot but I had been away working and had not see todays posts. She is dressed up all fancy in this one but she still looks very pretty. As regards the trees morrisoxfordV there are a variety of trees for the good reason that Powers sold seeds and trees!

There's another photo with the contraption going through Glenville's gates - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000593711 [Ed. Fixed!]
From that it is easier to see that the lorry is a "Sentinel" made in Shrewsbury, England - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentinel_Waggon_Works Sharon Corbet -

Very handy to be a steam-powered coal delivery truck if your own fuel supply runs low!

Seedtech are the current incarnation of Power's seeds in Waterford. Apparently there was also a tomato plantation there in the 1940's.
