    I see this image at independent.ie captioned: Sean Lemass is carried shoulder high by supporters following his by-election victory in Dublin
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Wikipedia says Hugh Kennedy of Cumann na nGaedheal was appointed Chief Justice, and Lemass won the ensuing bye-election.
  • Carol Maddock said:
    Nothing useful to contribute. Just popping my head up to say I LOVE THIS PHOTOGRAPH! (Not often I take to ALL CAPS, but this one's worth it)
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The elections was on the 18th- not sure when it was declared.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The archive record says the Photographer is Joseph Cashman, so Dad is presumably a Cashman who supported Sinn Fein around this time? Edit: Perhaps not. Per the archive entry, photographer Joseph Cashman was born in 1881 (Perhaps this Cork machinist of 1911 ), so his father would be latest 1861, and 63+ in the photo. None of these gents look 63 to me.

Let Lemass lead on!

    Sadly demolished in 1965 to make way for the ESB head office maps.app.goo.gl/hoZiXDFxqcAcVdMT7

    The car is a late-model Ford Prefect.
  • Suck Diesel said:
    O Mac Just another act of civic vandalism, for which no one was ever charged. I think the ESB have since moved out.
  • Suck Diesel said:
    Irish251 Probably late ‘59 car reg Edit: late 1960

    I found a reference to "State Express" being manufactured in a factory on the Cashel Road, Dublin, and the roads appear to match in this Google Satellite View.

    Looking on Streetview , at least the office block parts of the buildings at the front seem to be still there, even if the manufacturing part has been obviously altered.

    Politicians of this caliber are as rare as hens teeth nowadays! Or am I just a grumpy old man?

    Who is the "mythical or former hero" behind ? 6 April 1966 was a Wednesday ...
  • O Mac said:
    He'd certainly be contender for the 1966 largest bags under the eyes award.
