1 black and white postcard print

A sepia-toned photo postcard showing an outdoor group portrait of seventeen student hurlers and three Capuchin Franciscan at Rochestown during the 1907-1908 academic year. Fathers Adrian Sharkett, Edwin Fitzgibbon, and Bonaventure Murphy (identified by a later ink annotation on the verso) are present in the image. On the reverse there is a vertical pencil message addressed to Miss Mollie Bergin of Friary Street, Kilkenny. The message reads ‘Arrived back in the Metropolis last evening. Found all at home [and] down in great form since. Getting back to the Marble City [illegible] / Hope you are better by this time. Kindest regards to all friends’.
