Stamp Marks 150th Anniversary of Irish Times

An Post has issued a new stamp to mark the 150th anniversary of The Irish Times.

The Irish Times clock is featured on the first diamond shaped stamp ever to be issued by Ireland.

The clock was originally erected on the newspaper's building on Westmoreland Street in the early 1900's and became something of a Dublin landmark. It was later transferred to D'Olier Street after the opening of a new front office. In September 2008 it relocated once again to the paper's new offices on Tara Street.
