Yellow with black writing poster for ‘The Righteous Are Bold’ a play in three acts by Frank Carney in the Abbey Theatre for one week only, 15 Feb, 1954, on.

This poster advertises a run of The Righteous Are Bold by Frank Carney. It was the most-performed play in the Abbey Theatre (which was temporarily housed in the Queen’s Theatre). Now largely forgotten, the play was hugely popular in its day because it featured the first exorcism to be shown on an Irish stage. The plot concerns an Irish emigrant returning home from London who is possessed by some ‘evil’, and the ensuing battle between scientific, pagan and Catholic beliefs as to how it should be removed. It was performed 245 times, 96 of those on its first run in 1946.

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.
