Hamburg! Urgent!

    1926 to 1949 is??? The tractor would have been a major investment and would have been expected to last for years so it could have been taken any time after 1921! The baskets could have been for seedlings which would have needed some protection against crushing, drying and so on. Looking at the bags they appear to be lumpy in the way that branches would affect them? The young lady is very pretty and as you said very well dressed for the occasion, she was probably one of the Powers and not a field hand in the making!

    Tobacco? Hamburg was the center of the German cigar making industry. William Power & Co. was a large tobacco grower.

    Swordscookie You're quite right, as always! :) I should have been more specific. Definitely think that as the tractor registration (YI 9417) is almost at the top end of the numbering, that it must have been bought and registered very close to the cut-off point for that sequence - YI 9999 was in March 1927 - hence this photo must have been taken after 1926.

    Seuss. Well now, tobacco. You could be spot on...
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    This is a big help to narrow the dating. Definitely 1926 or later. At this point the company was still called William Power & Sons. The name changed to William Power & Co. in 1942, when William senior died, and William junior took over. So, some time between 1926 and 1942! Wonder if we can do better than that even...

    What are the round things? [ed.] They were not evident in 1953 - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000046717 catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000046627 catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000046720

    beachcomber australia Might they be heating vents? Ian Fleming wrote in 'Live and Let Die' of New York having a piped heating system with regular vents or gratings in the road.

    I have a photo just like this too following my 2016 Dublin trip. I think the jail was also used as a set to film "in the name of the father"

    Would the piles of "clothes" be more likely blankets?

    Think this is a little later than the Egg and Foul Market given the growth in the tree on the right. But not much. Egg and Fowl is circa 1905 so I would say 1906 or 07 at 12.12 PM some day
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    DannyM8 Well, circa 1905 on the Egg and Fowl Market was speculative... Never firmly established.
  • DannyM8 said:
    National Library of Ireland on The Commons Understand that. But think this is a little older
  • DannyM8 said:
    Think this might be the Egg and Fowl Market also?
