There have been demands this week for Government intervention to prevent the sale at auction of some of the country’s most precious historical artifacts and documents associated with the Easter 1916 Rising.
Two auction firms, Adam’s and Mealy’s, plan to sell off some of the materials associated with the event in an auction billed as the ‘Independence Sale’ scheduled for Easter week.
