Allan Peel, San Antonio, Tex. was one of several who identified the last Mystery Photo: “Today’s mystery photo is in downtown Dingle, Ireland, a town (pop: 1,671) on the the Dingle Peninsula along the Atlantic coast of southwestern Ireland. It is the only town on the peninsula, and its main industries are tourism, fishing, and agriculture. The green and white building on the left of the photo is The Dingle Pub, was established in 1975 and is considered by many to be one of the most famous and iconic pubs in Ireland. It is popular with tourists and locals alike as they have live Irish music seven-days a week until the ‘wee hours of the night.’ What struck out to me about the mystery photo was the fact that the buildings are all painted in colorful pastel colors. It turns out that in the 1970s, Ireland held a nationwide Tidy Town competition, and Dingle residents embraced it by changing the color scheme of the whole town, and continue the tradition more than 50 years later!” This photo came from Sharon LeMaster of Decatur.
Others recognizing the photograph included Mickey Merkel, Berkeley Lake; Lou Camerio, Lilburn; Jay Altman, Columbia, S.C.; George Graf, Palmyra, Va.; Fran Worrall, Lawrencville.
