An umbrella Michael Collins left behind in a Dublin pub has gone on display in his ancestral home in Clonakilty, West Cork
The silk mechanical umbrella was left behind following one of his visits to Devlin’s Pub on Parnell Street and has since been safeguarded by the Devlin family.
The umbrella is tightly wound and held in a telescopic faux wood cover that doubles as a walking cane
It's believed that Collins may have used the cane as part of his disguise of a normal businessman about town
