Throwback Thursday (95)
Currently in 2017 there are at least four buses in all over ads within the Dublin Bus fleet. In the 1980s and 1990s there were much more, but in the early 2000s Dublin Bus went through a fallow period of having none. This changed in 2012 when they started to reappear again. One difference was that the front of the bus did not receive an ad, so no longer was it really an all-over ad, but it did cover most of the bus. AV 247 was the second bus to be treated and it was done up like a loaf of Brennan's Bread. It lasted a long time like this, and although it was a Ringsend bus, it spent time in Phibsborough so the ad could gain maximum audience coverage. It is seen here on Hawkins Street with a 27 to Jobstown. 02/11/2012
