Saw this image from the National Library of Ireland in a post on here.
It described as:
"Airport Bus. September 1961."
No known copyright restrictions. This photos also appears in collections of 1960s images of Dublin.
It feels older, certainly when compared to other 60s photos, if it was labelled as late 1940 it would seem just as reasonable. Is this really Dublin in 1961 or miss-attributed?
