Old B&W Photos Of Dublin - Part 1

[DAMNTHEWEATHER]

Do I see "The Clock in the Dock" lurking there to remind us of how many things we wasted the old spondoolix on when we used to have money/

Yeah lol...and things when there was less spondoolix.

The Sunday Independent 1953;
While there was widespread bemusement at ‘The Bowl Of Light’, it would become one of Dublin’s most short lived public ornaments. On April 19th, only weeks after its unveiling, the ‘flames’ from the Bowl were chucked into the River Liffey, the actions of Anthony Wilson, a young student of Trinity College Dublin.
