Some time later - The World Renowned Boot People

    9 and 10 Broad Street, 1896 or later. (They were still there in 1909).
  • chris routledge said:
    Two great images. The choice in the windows outstrips many a modern 'boot shop'. I really enjoy the work of Niall above and many of the other sleuths who track down so much information. Your site is always of interest.

    chris routledge Thank you! Our site is mostly of interest because of the work of Niall McAuley and our other sleuths... :)

    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...
