Ha ha National Library of Ireland on The Commons point out the balcony the people were sitting on in the earlier picture of this street now?

Again not a single uncovered head.

I've a photo of the front of the GPO, taken from over near those trams.

Probably taken by my great-grandfather who who had an office in Anglesea Street.

Nice one [http://www.flickr.com/photos/64555638@N00] that is a great memory to have and thank you for sharing it.

And fifty years later Horatius was to go.

Looking down Prince's Street. This O'Connell St. shot from the 20s shows signs pointing down this street to the Capitol:

Per Wikipedia: began life on 10 August 1920 as the La Scala Theatre and Opera House. Despite its name, the La Scala was a cinema. Paramount Pictures took over the lease on the building and renamed it the Capitol. Under new management, the Capitol ran a live show every week to accompany the current film ... The last stage show was on 29 October 1953. The Capitol continued as a cinema until 1972.

'Flight of the Doves' was released in 1971, which wrenches this photo out of the '60s ... www.imdb.com/title/tt0067104/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_of_the_Doves

While fleeing across the Irish countryside, two orphans are pursued by their villainous uncle, a master of disguises. With Ron Moody, Willie Rushton, Niall Toibín, Dana (!) and Noel Purcell as the Rabbi (!!).

Congratulation for your beautiful Album.
