[Fred Paul, Butcher, 14 Hall Street, Bondi, NSW]

c1920s. Group of three vintage silver gelatin photographs, partially illegible photographer’s signature and annotated “Sydney” in pencil on backing below two images, one partially trimmed, sizes from 10.7 x 15.4cm to 16.3 x 21.4cm. Slight silvering and foxing, one with soiling to right edge, each laid down on original backing.

All images show four butchers in aprons standing outside their shop. Two photographs, showing a 1920s delivery van, are of the same image, with one being an enlargement. The enlargement shows a street number of “14” above the door, phone numbers “Wav 544-1266” and the Hebrew word for “kosher” in the right-hand window.

During the early half of the 20th century, Fred Paul had several butcher shops in Sydney (Pitt Street, Erskine Street, Circular Quay) and one in Hall Street, Bondi.
