Curiously the Cork Examiner retrospective "Picture That" makes no mention of the 1902 exhibition but does mention the huge popularity of the 1889 exhibition

Wonderful photo! A large number of those people are staring directly at the camera: did Mr French shout "CHEESE!" ?
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
beachcomber australia Given that they were about to embark on a weekends fasting shouting "Cheese" might have been a bit too cruel in the circumstances?

They are at the then train station. 25" map. Per eiretrains: Pettigo, Co.Fermanagh, is located on the former Great Northern Railway's branch line to the well known coastal resort of Bundoran, built in June 1886 and unfortunately closed in November 1957 EDIT: Per Fred Dean's comment below, it seems eiretrains has the wrong date here, and the station actually opened in 1868.

The conveyance on our left is labelled Flood's Hotel. Here is Daniel J. Flood, Hotel Proprietor in the census of 1901 and 1911.
Niall McAuley said:
The bus on our right is labelled Brennans Pettigoe. There are no Brennans at all in the 1901 census in Pettigoe, and none who look to be running charabancs in 1911.

I checked in the Thom's Directories and the Rabaiotti Bros. don't appear until 1910 at no. 49 Amiens Street (for a couple of years before that, an Angelo Santi worked out of that address). The Rabaiotti's are listed as Merchants in 1910 and 1911. By 1914, they've expanded into no. 50 next door and are listed as Confectioners also.

www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai000193785/ rabaiotti family in 1911 but very much Fish Merchants.

There were Rabaiottis in Swansea when I lived there in the 1980s. I think they ran a café.
Flickr confirms they are still there.

Most of the well-known Italian cafe dynasties in South Wales came from the Bardi region in the 1920s/1930s.

I wonder if the Irish Rabiottis are from the same part of Italy?

Describing the Italian cafe influx into South Wales www.walesonline.co.uk/news/local-news/proud-history-valle... This sentence struck me. "Various members of the Rabaiotti families also had cafes and ice-cream carts on the streets well before 1907." Perhaps the Irish ones came via S Wales.
