Particular photo of O'Connell Street, circa 1930s/1940s

    In this Youtube documentary on the Second World War there is an unexpected Dublin angle, and a photograph of O'Connell Street appears at 27:41. A van for St Mary Magdalen's, the Magdalene Laundry at Donnybrook, appears in the photo. 

    I've done a fair bit of online searching trying to find it - eg National Library database and a few commercial sites. It's possible I may have missed it on those.

    Any suggestions of where to look (particularly if there are collections relating to the 30s/40s) or if anyone has ever seen it in a book would be really helpful.

    You could try the Irish architectural archive in merrion square, if you haven't already. They have lots of old photos of Dublin.
