  • ShShShay said:
    Definately high fashion of the era !
  • swanq said:
    As pennyrichardsca indicates with the other photo, these must be the wives of three democratic leaders: Robert Crain, who was chairman of the committee that raised the guarantee fund which landed the 1912 Democratic National Convention for Baltimore. Thomas Taggart of Indiana Norman E. Mack, New York Chairman of the Democratic National Committeeman. The date on the stamp is 6/1?/12 -- which is consistent with the date of the convention.
  • BobMeade said:
    swang - I agree with you. I'm starting to tag the phhotos related to the 1912 convention as "1912 DNC" to keep track.
  • Anne (LOC P&P) said:
    Thanks for bringing attention to date on the negative. We'll update the source data and reload the description.

    Another lovely old picture and the chap striding towards the camera does add to the interest of the shot. The street looks very clean, no litter.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    It doesn't look much like this photo
  • Niall McAuley said:
    If it's Belfast, the electric trams mean it's 1906 or later.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley That's why I'm confused, Niall. And hastily amending date, but I'm happy enough that it's Belfast...
  • ccferrie said:
    It's similar in style to the Great Northern Railway Station but I don't think it's the same building.

    Is "Old Time" like God's time we heard about a while back, meaning none of that Government Daylight Savings nonsense?
  • DannyM8 said:
    Is there some relationship to this Hickey?
  • Vab2009 said:
    It is rather timeless - we had a store in Belfast that I was taken into often in the early sixties and even the clothing on display looked like this! It had money tubes.

    Vab2009 There's an old time department store in central Reading that hasn't changed much from those days. Still has the pneumatic money tube system working. www.jacksonsofreading.co.uk/about.htm www.dooyoo.co.uk/department-stores/jacksons/179983/

    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/eyelightfilms] Pneumatic Tube Transport Systems are still manufactured by Quirepace Lamson, formerly Lamson Paragon. I remember the wooden ball Cash Carrier system in Co-op shops in the 1950s. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cash_Carrier
