If you enjoyed Jason Statham’s ultra-violent use of a hurley, you’ll love MGM’s literally wacky “Hurling” (1936), narrated by Pete Smith, scripted and directed by David Miller (who went on to direct the Marx Brothers and classic unsung 1973 JFK conspiracy movie Executive Action) and filmed in a studio back-lot with a cast made up of Irish-looking “fellas”.

Unless it’s the actual Cork team of 1936 and that really is Jimmy Barry Murphy at 1.51.

Looks like Jerry Fish was due to play Danny Byrne’s in Mullingar, supported by local lads ‘Good Man Sheila’.

However, Jerry himself put a stop to this and the locals aren’t happy.  In fact, they’re so mad that their grammar circuits have fused.

The men’s magazine whose logo was two women crouched in a box, weeping.

Yes! Brand New Retro has scanned in a few pages from the third issue of Man Alive, Ireland’s first men’s magazine dated August 1974.

Sadly the ‘Porn on the Cob’ feature may have proved literally unscannable. Also the restaurant reviews appear to have been written by your dad in a really bad mood.

“The wenches serving [in Captain America’s] are usually braless. Avoid weekends. Too many glass-eyed hippies sipping milkshakes.”

“Put it together piece by piece and wait for the action!”

Kathy Fogarty: hipster soft-porn. Clothes: Literally photographer’s own.

Hugo: “Gay”, apparently.

The River Dargle. Nippy.
