A chara, – In a preview of a forthcoming auction of posters, it is stated that “you might question Gus Melai’s depiction of an Irish fisherman wearing what look like ballet pumps in the Ireland Invites You poster from the 1950s”. The footwear depicted, and once worn widely in the Aran Islands, are pampooties and made from cowhide. – Is mise,
