Portée et contenu
A pink with black writing flyer for event at Blackrock Baths on Saturday 27 August 1949 to see ‘The Swimming Champions From the three countries, England, Scotland and Ireland in action’ and lists those taking part as well as water ballet and water polo.
The Blackrock Baths was created following public outcry at access to the sea being cut off by the building of the Dublin-Kingstown railway line in 1834. Hugely popular, the baths often witnessed displays by Dublin’s great high-diving and springboard-diving champion, Eddie Heron. During the 1980s the baths fell into disuse and were later dismantled and sold to a private firm.
