    No brake cables - they're all rod-actuated.

    From a Google Book source..."Post-Famine Ireland: Social Structure: Ireland As It Really Was" "John O Neill's bicycle factory in Dublin was started in 1894 originally assembling the bicycles but not manufacturing all the parts ( Weekly Irish Times April 5th 1913)" I don't have access to the newpaper archives to look that up!

    O Mac Thank you! I'm off to check now...

Sinbad the Sailor aka Tinbad the Tailor

    The adverts & reviews for this production (in Freeman's Journal) spell it "Sindbad". The part of Sindbad Tinbad was played by Mr. Willie Crackles.

    John Spooner Willie Crackles and Greenleaf Withers! You couldn't make this stuff up...

  • John Spooner said:
    In the Freeman's review on 27 December, the sets and the costumes come in for particular praise. In addition
    Mr J W Volt, as Mrs Sindbad, was mainly instrumental in making the fun of the piece go fast and furious, and Mr. Crackles, whose particular name will enter into the minds and memories of the youth of the city, made the part of Tinbad quite remarkable.
    Also
    The dances are good, and Miss Jessie Noire's Serpentine dance was a feature of the time.
    That last bit has made me feel all peculiar.

    John Spooner Have a sit down and a cuppa, John, and you'll be right as rain! The chorus dancers must have been raging about "the dances are good" - talk about damning with faint praise.
