PHOTOGRAPH: METTERS BUILDING, HAY STREET, 1929

« Prev Item Next Item »

1929

Overview

Black and white photograph of façade of double-storey building with 'METTERS BUILDING' in raised letters under cornice with its central moulding. There is a verandah overhanging the ground floor showroom windows. A windmill is visible at left and two early Kooka stoves on the right. The caption reads 'Our Freehold showrooms, 847-851 Hay Street, Perth, 1929. Metters Ltd. 847-851 Hay Street, Perth. Works, Subiaco'. This photograph was probably used for publicity, since the surround is blank.
