Men browsing at a secondhand bookstall at Bachelors' walk Dublin 1963. Published in Quinn, Edward. James Joyces Dublin. Secker & Warburg, London 1974.
On Bachelors' Walk in Dublin, 1963, a group of men and one young boy gather around a wooden cart overflowing with secondhand books and magazines. Dressed in suits, ties, and fedoras, they intently browse the selection, which includes titles such as "Home Messenger" and "Irish Review and Annual." One man fans through postcards while the boy sits, looking down at the display with a contemplative expression. In the background, the street scene includes a vintage car and a sign for "McGRATH BROTHERS TEA, COFFEE AND SUGAR MERCHANTS."
