Continental-sized (approx. 4x6") postcard with a view of the People's Park

in Newtown Pery, Limerick, at cherry blossom time.

Photo by Peter O'Toole.

Front banner reads, "LIMERICK CITY, IRELAND" and "People's Park".

Back caption reads,

"LIMERICK CITY, where the Shannon river meets the sea is one of the most

progressive of Irish cities, where past and present mingle pleasantly. That part

of the city called Newtown Pery was designed and planned in 1767, and is the

Limerick of wide streets crossing at right angles, and the pleasantly tree-sprinkled

People's Park. The tall column in the park commemorates Thomas Spring Rice,

(1790-1866), first Baron Monteagle, an enlightened and progressive Limerick citizen."
