Ireland Post Office, lantern slide

Image Description from historic lecture booklet: "One of the first moves of the new government has been the recognition of the Gaelic language. This has been used by a minority of the people but it is the language of those, who, centuries ago possessed the land and who, like the Welsh and the Scotch Highlanders have been driven back into the rough unproductive hill sections. It is officially on a par with the English and all government signs and literature, like this sign over a Dublin post office are printed in both languages.". .Original Collection: Visual Instruction Department Lantern Slides. .Item Number: P217:set 050 005. .You can find this image by searching for the item number by clicking here ( http://oregondigital.org/digcol ) . ..Want more?
