Re: Re: Dublin Street Lighting

I recall seeing the lamp heads, three if not four, for sale at a stand in Mother Redcap’s “antique” market back in the early eighties. What surprisesd me was how large they were. The casings were copper, although somewhat tarnished,and the glass opaque and yellowish. Not the kind of thing that might have ended up in a bedsit (remember them?) off the South Circular Road. That crowd went for the smelly “fir ag obair” lights. As for the standards,alas, methinks they got ground up.
