It looks like it alright. If you look at the holes where the screws holding the letters on were you can see that it spells out ACC Bank in the same font.

I still think there is a few of these around, although with new faces:

38 of the 40 original DARTs remain in service but have been refurbished. The other two were damaged beyond repair in a fire in 2001.

Here's a photo of the 8100 units as they are now.

Cheers fort the replys

Was going to say I am not that old, and it would have been bad value if they had all be scrapped by now

i was inferring that you have had a box of tissues in your room for 15 years and haven't used them for any self spillage that might have happened
and it is is even more funny cos they are called facial tissues

Didn't manage to find the HWilliams logo either, but I did find an advert for the shop posted on YouTube - it's the first of this selection of adverts. And (really showing me age here!) I remember shopping in H Williams in Prussia St!

Think you will find it is still the Dublin Logo. For Copyright issues the Dublin GAA Council Bastardised the city logo and Seal and stook a football on it. Have refused to buy a GAA shirt since!
