Phil Tierney was an amateur historian who took a keen interest in his adopted town of Mullingar. He was a regular contributor to local newspapers and radio on past political events and entertainment. He had a particular interest in the history of the circus. He was also an avid collector of postcards which resulted in the publication of Mullingar in old picture postcards.
Westmeath Libraries are delighted to share a selection of St Patrick Day postcards from the Phil Tierney Collection held in the archives of Westmeath Libraries.
