Three old images of Dublin that I’ve come across lately online.

Though the pub has now been replaced by a Chinese restaurant, you can still see the lion above the door. c. 1940s/50s?

I don’t think the photo was from the 40s, 50s or 60s as the advert in the window is for karaoke which I don’t think was too popular in Dublin back in those days………..( cue postings about establishments on Parnell St being well ahead of the times !?!?)
Well spotted.
So, I guess it was taken in the 1980s or 1990s.
The Tennents Larger ‘T’ is in the window. Pretty sure Tennents didn’t arrive here until the 70’s (each can had a picture of a woman posing).
Tennents on draught the early 80s?
