The North Inner City 1916 Commemorations Group, with the support of Dublin City Council, organised a special fair and exhibition dedicated to all things 1916 - books, art, memorabilia, photos and militaria - in Dublin's City Hall on Saturday June 11, 2016.
With over 40 exhibitors, this was the major Book, Memorabilia and art Fair of 2016 dedicated to the Easter Rising. Here there were rare and unique books on aspects of the Rising, culled from all over the country - and abroad. Some of the books were published by their authors, others by small or independent publishers, yet others by major publishers, in both English and Irish.Side by side with these were souvenirs, memorabilia and unique artwork.
There was also a unique exhibition of militaria and other effects relating to the Easter Rising and subsequent revolutionary period, with experts on hand to discuss the items.
The Fair was attended by a huge number of people over the day, and all stands reported steady business, and proclaimed themselves pleased with the day and a desire to repeat the day later in the year ... watch this space for details and information.
Below is a small selection of photos from this great event.
