Sydney markets, by Rex Hazlewood, c. 1911-1916

    Some sort of a game of skill perhaps, where it costs penny to avoid being electrocuted.
  • Andy Brill said:
    This is truly a "shocking" photo! Here is an earlier (1868) version of a 'shock therapy' device:
  • Владислав Владислав said:
    Впечатляет! Все старые фото чем-то похожи, где бы ни были сделаны (Австралия, Германия или Россия). Вот только "голая" Африка выглядела бы одинаково и в ХХ, и в XIX... Полчается, всё из-за одежды?!

Standing up and sitting down!

    Good morning all Flickroonies and here is a scene of intense industry and an issue of location for you from Irelands oldest city. Waterford is a beautiful, ancient and historic city and the traders there have a long history of innovation and style. Hearnes are no exception and this shot shows their tailors at work. Who can help us to put this in the correct location????
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Here in the archive is Hearne's tailor shop window, at number 64.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley Very good Niall but 64 what? The Quay or Georges Street???
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Both! Looking at the OSI site at GeoHive, Number 64 on Merchant's Quay (now Meagher's Quay) stretched right back to George's Street behind. Today the site is split between the Granville Hotel on the Quay and a shopping centre on George's street, but back in the day, it was one site.
  • DannyM8 said:
    The word Overseer comes to mind for those standing up? The workers all seem to be reasonably well dressed, perhaps as a perk of the job they were able to make a suit for themselves? Is there a status attaching to the hats that can be seen in the photo. Ps - the note feature you talked about last week is sorely missed

    In the left lower corner the date scratched is 3/9/29 (mirror view), March 9th, 1929. Several pictures were dated the same day, 18 (eighteen) years later the real events took place, for example the photo entitled Federal Troops at Torreón; pending to tell you wich other photos of your collection have scratched 1929 date.
