Irish Sweepstake (1931)

Unused / unissued material - no paperwork - dates unclear or unknown. Eire, Southern Ireland, Republic of Ireland. Groups of women mix up the thousands of tickets for the Irish Sweepstake. Boxes of tickets are emptied out onto a table. They are spread out and mixed (Thanks to Paraic O Lochlain for informing us that this is most likely a draw of the Irish Hospitals Sweepstakes - some kind of Lottery Draw.)
