Oh don't worry, I have this as well as hundreds of other old Dublin videos ripped/downloaded in full quality. Beautiful video and brilliant work. This will never video will live on well after we are gone.
@@Gabriel-br4qe it was a beautiful trip still a lot of horse drawn carts, delivering milk, bread, etc. lotta dirty diesel trucks black smoke. A lot of poverty a lot of nice people. All the children seem happy playing in the street with next to nothing or barrel hoop kid had a half a rubber ball on his head like a helmet, I bought some of the little kids ice creams that were hanging around me. Go visit if you can just stay out of the big cities out to the small towns countryside doubt if it’s changed much at all thanks for your comment.
@@Gabriel-br4qe in the 60s you could get bed-and-breakfast above a pub very clean for under three dollars. You could pitch a small tent out on a countryside hill no problems bye Dennis.
People like you are what's great about TH-cam. Thank you for sharing your adventurous spirit. My Grandfather, from Dublin, did something similar pre WW2. Fair play to you and God bless.
My mum was born in 1930's and said it was a tyranny to have to dress in hat and gloves when you went out. Also, she says what she remembers of the 1950's, in Dublin, was that it was grey! Weather, buildings, life! I think we are much better off now, materially, but life has always been very hard for some folks. The colourisation is amazing. I remember still getting on those buses to travel to secondary school in 1981 - they were built to last!

Great video. I really enjoyed the old cars. I am a lifelong car enthusiast and could identify almost all of the cars featured. From the models shown, as well as the absence of others and some registration numbers, I would say the footage dated from 1965 or 1966.
It was nice to see Gings Costumers in Dame Street on the right with the Canopies outside. That whole block was gutted and is now a small square near City Hall. I used to get my dancing costumes from Gings for shows I used to participate in from the Desmond Dominican Academy of Dance. It's sad to see how much has changed. Happy memories though.
I love the lack of road markings..." There's your tarmac, now go figure it out. " The traffic soundtrack is a little incongruous; the car horns are a low pitch American " PARRP! " instead of a higher pitch, polite english " beep beep. " ( most of the vehicles are British-made with a smattering of european types ). Spectacular footage. Many thanks for posting and I hope my car horn comment helped.
Apparently the Dutch are going back to this way in parts. By removing signs/markings it makes the people take notice of the surroundings and responsibility leading to safer driving. Wouldn't mind it in modern Dublin which is a forest of bollards, signposts and traffic lights
I was born in 1960, I remember every one of these cars. Became a mechanic when i was 17 and worked on most of them ahhh great memories. One thing though. None of the vehicles had the horns/hooters that are in the video
It's amazing to see traffic freely flowing around the College Green and Connelly Bridge areas. It looks like that in the 1960's you could drive across Dublin and reach destinations in 5-10 minutes that now take an hour or more. So much for progress.
Because the country was dirt poor and most people couldn't afford a car. The city was in a terrible state, and as you can see, all the black on the buildings, polluted very badly. That was a death sentence for many.
Cars destroyed the urban fabric of the city centre for themselves and everyone else. So happy to see the push towards pedestrianisation and public transport. Still a long way to go but the city centre is becoming a nicer place to be every day.
@@caoimhecampbell5985 I lived in Dublin then and it was a nice place to walk around. Not any more, I hate the place now, remove the cars and the feral gangs take over. The city is now all bollards, bikers, beggars, buskers and billboards, blocking the pavements!
The roads are incredibly smooth. Also, note that you could drive down both sides of the quays, in both directions on both. Now you can only go in one direction on either side and you can't use most of the lanes with a car or even get down at all unless you're a bus or taxi.
@@eoghanii7049 Your misogyny is showing - so the target of Bike Nazis is clear " Mammies" - ie Women who can't use bikes because of their caring duties driving dependant relatives to school or medical appointments.

So enjoyable to watch, in many ways simpler times. Thanks NASS for your uploads and work restoring these great masterpieces, it' amazing to think someone was behind the lens back then recording these scenes for us to see what they saw and then for you to restore and bring to the viewer in the 21st century. As always, thank you. Best wishes to the uploader,loved ones and fellow viewers,not forgetting the origional recorder too ❤❤❤.
This is fabulous! There was a lot more cars on the streets than I remember from my childhood in Dublin's city centre. But what memories are evoked! Great to see Nelson' Pillar still standing. I recall going up to the top for the first time only a few weeks before it was blown up in March 1966. Great job, thanks.
This is wonderful. The bus with 'Cork Dry Gin' emblazoned on the side, followed by another bus with 'Guinness - For Sure!' on its side was amusing. Being a traffic warden/conductor, waving your arms around for hours was probably a tad exhausting, not to mention teeth-grindingly tedious. Thanks for upload. Cheers from Louth.
They were not traffic wardens. They were members of An Garda Siochana who were due to do this duty for a certain length of time each day along with their duties, They were also at a couple of different points in O'Connell St before traffic lights were there. You might take a chance going through a Yellow traffic light but you wouldn't do it when a guard put the hand up with the white glove on.
This footage is clearly pre 1966, as Nelson's Column is clearly visible down O'Connell street just as the camera vehicle is about to turn right from Westmoreland street into D'Olier Street. The IRA blew up Nelson's Column in 1966. Lovely to see the art deco canopy in front of the Olympia Theatre on Dame street, too. Thanks for the video👍
Probably early 1966. The car reg KZI was issued about December 1965. If there were any Christmas signs, or new year sale notices, I didn't see them. Therefore I reckon early 66, between late January and 8 March, when Nelson was blown apart.
@@thomasburke2683as there are no Christmas decorations it has to be after Twelfth Night (5th January). They will have observed this far more rigourously than they do these days 😄
Another Nass journey into the past showing everyday people around the world just doing their thing! Always a treat & I love how the streets are so clean they almost look like water! 🎞 ❤
Such a beautiful city.. without all the 'glamour' of lights & screens etc. Personally I think life was better back then. We were friendlier, neighbourly, kind to others. Now we have our headphones on & are heads are looking down towards our phones...
Only people with their heads in their newspapers and not being able to get into town regularly enough etc. Dublin is still a friendly place. There were probably proportionately as many shysters, skivers, pickpocketers, etc. back then also. Rampant abuse in the church, and poverty was worse then. Far less disposable income for so many more than today.
This is amazing to see what Dublin was like back in the Day fantastic work Nass 💯 percent just came across your channel scrolling through TH-cam this is a rare piece of video of what Dublin was like, I think in your description you work and remaster footish of old videos. Well I just subscribed looking forward to seeing the rest of your work best of luck with your channel 🇮🇪
LOL I grew up in the '60s and so I am having a hard time looking at this video as an old video, That may be me walking on the street for all I know LOL🤣🤣🤣
We visited Ireland for a family holiday in 1962, staying mainly in county Waterford but travelling around. We really enjoyed it, but the poverty was absolute - only two houses had electricity in the small town where we stayed, local public transport was mainly by horse and cart, there were no free health services, and the only readily available food was potatoes and salmon poached from the local river (both delicious though!). We also travelled on a train which only had gas lighting. I have real affection for the places we visited, the friendly people we met and the experience of ‘Irishness’. But please don’t get too misty eyed!
Best comment on the thread; "nostalgia" used to be seen as a mental illness, and I think it should still be. All the people here cooing over the footage wouldn't last a week back then before cracking. "A simple life", my arse. Some of my mother's stories would curdle your blood.
Interesting, and looks like the normal bustle of a mid-sized city. What is noteworthy (in an almost odd way) is how glass-smooth ALL the streets are! Perhaps it's a result of the restorative process, who knows (?).
At 4:45....the bus coming out of Anglesea Street, to make a right turn into Dame St. Could you imagine trying that today or even in the 70's....the bus had already made a left turn from Fleet St into Angelsea St, this was the time the 50/50A/50B/56 terminated outside the old ESB offices on Fleet St.
@@speicherkanal4894 You the migrants dont miss the old times too? Every single country they come from used to be much much better in every way. the standard of living and development was high all over the world but the Elites that run this f**** planet, the anglo-saxon elite, wasnt too happy about that so they covertly infiltrated and destroyed every single one of them. If you look iran for example in the 70s it was progressive country, democratic, education, women dressed as they like etc. and then all ruined.
Ireland was an impoverished third world country back then where nearly all the young educated left for overseas. You would not want to lib there at that time .
Absolutely fascinating. I work near Dame Street and was trying to see if any of the shops/brands from back then were still there - don`t think they are.
Good better times that the world will not see it again. Somebody didn’t like and more wars were in the agenda. Excellent footages! Thanks for reminding us about that!👏
@@freepadz6241 @Berlin-Kladow bullsh*t! My grandparents didn't have any money, and yet they had a nice house near the sea and near the airport, and they were able to pay the heating and electricity bills without any problems. Now you have people with good jobs who can't even afford a tiny flat in the suburbs and have to keep heating off cos they can't afford bills. My parents have a lot more money than my grandparents and they would never be able to afford a house where my grandparents lived today. So just shut up already!!
O'Connell Bridge House was completed in 1964 and opened in 1965. Nelsons Pillar was destroyed in March 1966. So the video has about an 18 month window from late 1964 to March 1966
What's actually mental is that it's been 60 years since this video was taken, and Dublin still looks pretty much exactly the same now as it did back then 😂
Great visuals. Sounds not appropriate - cars horns were wrong type and were never blared like this or as often. Usually just a short bip or two or more likely not sounded. But the authentic visuals are great!
Feels so magical to watch these videos and see people in the past doing their everyday things. Makes always wonder how was to live in these times. Keep the great work.👏🏻👏🏻 PS: 3:55 What a loud scooter.🛵😐
Nothing has changed, obviously the car driver was a southsider and afraid to go to the northside 🤣😅 I was laughing at the audio clips over the film ...it must have been Italy because you hardly ever hear car horns on Irish streets even now . And sounding a horn at a pedestrian on a pedestrian crossing would be very frowned upon 😅😂 but love watching your composition of this great time in Eire 🇮🇪
Interesting to watch this closely with a view to figuring out exactly which year it was. Two buildings narrow it right down. The new Liberty Hall 6:18 was completed and opened in 1965. Nelson's pillar 6:07 was demolished (blown up) in March 1966. People were wearing overcoats and the trees bare of leaves. Therefore this video was almost certainly taken during the winter of either 1964/65 or 1965/66. Buses, car models and registrations, and clothing fashions (e.g. 'stiletto' heels!) all tally with the mid 60's.

Nothing has changed, obviously the car driver was a southsider and afraid to go to the northside 🤣😅 I was laughing at the audio clips over the film ...it must have been Italy because you hardly ever hear car horns on Irish streets even now . And sounding a horn at a pedestrian on a pedestrian crossing would be very frowned upon 😅😂 but love watching your composition of this great time in Eire 🇮🇪
It's even more colourful now.
@1:10 The Irish House
Interesting to watch this closely with a view to figuring out exactly which year it was. Two buildings narrow it right down. The new Liberty Hall 6:18 was completed and opened in 1965. Nelson's pillar 6:07 was demolished (blown up) in March 1966. People were wearing overcoats and the trees bare of leaves. Therefore this video was almost certainly taken during the winter of either 1964/65 or 1965/66. Buses, car models and registrations, and clothing fashions (e.g. 'stiletto' heels!) all tally with the mid 60's.
Nice Video 👍 Thanks NASS 👍
The traffic is insane now. The pavements are crowded with people as well. Imagine driving around like this.
Brilliant thank you for sharing 👍👍👍👍👍❤
Not a pothole in sight! Look how wonderful the road surfaces were!
The Learner bus driver was doing a grand job
A few Ford Anglia's there, my Dad later married a lady from Ireland and she used to call them Angela's.
Great, thanks.
Ohh! Remember when we had wide roads and not much traffic?
The traffic is going up the north quays towards the park, its the opposite direction today.
And we are meant to believe that modern Dublin is so much better
I'm old enough to remember when the traffic on the quays moved in this direction. The opposite to how it is now.😂
Remember when you dressed up to go into town
Tragic what is happening to Ireland right now, if only we could go backwards to much simpler times like this
Si doux et si apaisant 🙏🏻🥰🌹
Technological hub of Europe now
