Our Boys – May 1979 – Brand New Retro

Irish boys magazine produced by the Christian Brothers. Started in 1914 and lasted into the 1980s. None of our boys ever read this. Wonder who did?

it was pretty bad.
why was Murphy of the Fourth Form in there when there was no ‘form’ in any Christy Minstrel school that I knew. Cultural cringe perhaps.
thank God for secular education

When I was young I used to look forward to reading the Magazine. I was wondering if anybody had unwanted copies for sale.

    Hi Aidan
    I would love to look at those copies if you still have them as I am doing some research on that period.

    Aidan I know it’s along time since I raised the query about Our Boys magazines. Do you still have them.

Has any one got copies of Our Boys, I loved that magazine especially Kitty the Hare ?. Probably the only thing I ever liked about going to the CBS. If I had my time back again I would be waiting for the school gates to open, happy days
