Summary

[edit]
Description

An alternative title of "Mind your step!" springs to mind :)

While the notes from the catalogue entry add some extra context ("Advertisement on cart possibly reads: Ballyshannon Shows! August 1908, Horse Jumping, Gymkhana. Man is wearing top hat and ringing a bell"), there's so much going on here that it bears a close look. Perhaps even close enough to identify the location of this unusual Clarke photo(?)

Top marks to [/photos/47297387@N03/ Carol Maddock] I think she has nailed the event and has established the date within a few weeks, please see her comment from the Fermanagh Herald, 15 August 1908, below. Earlier she identified that the actual show was to be held on the 6th August 1908

Photographer: J.J. Clarke (1879-1961)

Contributors: Brian P. Clarke, donor

Collection: Clarke Photographic Collection

Date: Before August 6th 1908 but, only by a few weeks. Thanks [/photos/47297387@N03/ Carol Maddock]
