The Collins Bookshop

If you walk past this area now, the Amacas Restaurant is in this building on Paul Street, Cork. At the time the building was empty, having been vacated by the Gingerbread House a few weeks previously.
This sign is now gone too, but Collins Bookshop on Carey's Lane is still there, I think. There's a fancy glass partition in front of the building now where smokers can sup their coffee and eat their food. A far cry from the previous occupant's dining arrangements.

I'm a sucker for old and weather beaten signs, street furniture and general rusted implements so I had to get a shot of this while walking past.
