Front: Photograph of the Duke of York's procession in William Street. The image was taken from an upper-level with the Royal car about to pass under the photographer's vantage point. The car is open and the Royal personages, the chauffeur and another man in a top hat can be seen. A group of mounted solders follows behind. The street is lined with people, standing behind barriers. At the left hand side of the image on the corner is the large building of 'The Economic Stores Ltd'. Next to that is the 'Bargain Store for Men'. A block of shops follows, the signs of 'F. Bonnet', ' A. Zeider' and 'Billets Café' can be seen. There are some figures on the upper level verandah. In the background, between the buildings, the sign 'Walsh's' appears.
