There's no need to apologise - this is a great documentary 'action' shot from the 1920s which really captures the drama of the event. So far as the ad's concerned... when I worked on newspapers as a reporter in the 1960s, spaces on the pages were allocated for ads, but we (in the editorial department) never knew what the content of the ads were - they were just blank spaces during the production process. If that's how it was at the Irish Independent way back then, it's likely to be coincidence - a nice one, though!

Peter Denton The next ad was for Minimax Hand Fire Extinguishers and proclaimed "50,230 actual fires extinguished by the Minimax Hand Fire Extinguisher since January, 1904 (include many indendiary burnings). Refills free; inspections free; & Descriptive pamphlet free from Minimax Ltd., Dublin." Sadly, I would imagine that business was booming in Ireland at this time...

Now that I screw my monocle in more tightly, is that a Lock Hard in his "official" cap, having a chat with the driver about payment?
