    Interesting symbolic aspects of humour here....... Findlater - I wonder if that was that a detective agency.

    That telephone number was a big hit at the time being so easy to remember. They were known as "The Sixes" and indeed they were a good company to call. Great to see the old cars on display, the Ford Zodiac just out of shot and I can't remember the model of the Vauxhall your driver is leaning on

    Swordscookie And they were still called The Sixes or All the Sixes long after the 7 got added at the start of the number in the 1970s, Sean, I think.

    In the background you can see the big MH for the Mater Hospital Pools which is very appropriate given the court case at the moment on the Govt. cutting off funding to the private lotteries wiped out by the National Lottery. There was a lot of work going on at the bank on Parnell St./Cavendish Row which has featured in some great discussions on here.

    My mam used to think nuns were crows when she started school and I can understand why now...

Z-D1 in flight (LOC)

    Built in France in 1919 books.google.com/books?id=9y8cBQAAQBAJ&pg=PA267 "The Zodiac ZDUS-1 and ZDUS-2 were ordered by the Navy and shipped to the US. Never operated by the Navy they were both apparently transferred to the Army, and one, the ZDUS-1, was operated by the Army at Langley Field, where the name was changed to ZD-1 and then to RN-1. The RN-1 was rebuilt with a significantly modified and lightened control car and two Liberty engines replacing the Renaults. In 1923 the RN-1 was rebuilt at Scott Field (Oklahoma). A new 340,000-cubic-foot (9,600 m3) envelope was provided, the control car was further modified and the two Liberty engines were replaced by Packards. RN-1 was put in storage at Scott Field during 1924.
