    was the "paperclip belt" the "fad" back then?
  • Periodic Geese said:
    WOW what a picture.
  • Beverly Leeck said:
    Yes... the paperclip belt was just something fun we did back then!!! Can't think of anything similar except maybe those people who walk around with chains hanging from their belts. Children didn't usually have their own money so buying a wearable 'fad' would not be possible. We made our own :)

    I'm guessing they are in the actual park across the road, rather than on the school grounds. Not many trees on school grounds at the time. 25" map link. The school is still there: Streetview

    I wonder what course that was, there seems to be a high number of women grads for the time?
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Absolutely, Sarah, so hoping someone might spot a familiar face that might allow us to narrow it down...

    Several different hoods being worn, these are graduates from several degree courses.

    There is a reference to UCD conferring on Page 3 of the Irish Times of Monday July 17th, but it's behind a paywall. Ditto Page 2 of the Indo that Monday. And the Sunday Indo of the 16th, page 2.
