Hy Cullen, funnily enough my first art time job was also in Georges St. A snack bar called Leverett & Frye. That was 1963.
I dont remember Winston's! Remind me.
They did school uniforms Brian among other drapery goods as did Keletts in Camden St. Kelletts was one of the last places along with Frawleys of Thomas St to have the overhead pulley thingys for the cash
Thanks Womblemum, I remember frawleys but not kelletts. I must have been in Winston's at some time - just cant remember!
yea kellets doesnt ring a bell with me..but you know the overhead pully thing does...cos there were very few shops with them..
I worked at one time in the cash office at clerys..and we used get locked into the office with the money hehehe..and it was frowned on if you needed to use the bathroom...getting the cash from the safe was something else eh....i loved it..pity they didnt pay well hehhe
