Posters
Current posters include "Irish Pubs of Portland, Maine" and "Maine Irish Pubs". Boldly colorful, they bring color and fun to any room. When you frame them, they make your office look classy.
Calendars
The "Maine Irish Coloring Calendar" gives kids of all ages a chance to engage their local Irish heritage while creating art. The days and months are in Irish (with a reference to hear how they are pronounced!), as are Irish holidays. American holidays are in English, as are notes on Irish radio programs. The back cover lists Irish resources and organizations in Maine. Great holiday gift!
Ornaments
For Christmas trees, door knobs, and the little spaces between kitchen windows! Irish themed 5" wicker ornaments come in Shamrock, Brigid's Cross, and Triskelion forms, with green, white, or orange ribbons. We also have Fleur-de-Lis and Round Cross ornaments.
Books
Éireannaigh Na hAndroscoggin: The Irish of Androscoggin County, Maine (2017)
For community and family historians this work fills a huge void in the story of Androscoggin County, particularly in the cities of Lewiston and Auburn, Maine. The French-Canadian population of the area may be larger, but the Irish came first and laid the foundations for them.
Each chapter focuses on a particular aspect of the Irish contribution to community life, from the churches to the police and fire forces, to the military and notable contributions of women. Éireannaigh Na hAndroscoggin provides the local context that our ancestors lived in. Great gift for the genealogist in your family, and for general reading.
129 pages with 10 full color plates of art work.
