Bargain Shop. Dublin 1963.

The densely packed window of a Dublin bargain shop, photographed in 1963, presents a bewildering array of merchandise. Religious figurines stand alongside toys such as a “Rocket BOX CAMERA” and a teddy bear. A display advertises Sheffield pocket knives, while decorative plates and a large doll hang from a pegboard wall. The handwritten price tags in pre-decimal currency mark a bygone era of commerce, with items ranging from a twopence ceramic swan to a trophy priced at nineteen shillings and sixpence.
