Harris Estate, City Freeholds, Sale No. 9 [Block 44]

1895. Printed subdivision auction plan, printer’s line “W.A. McLardy & Co., Sydney”, 77 x 101cm. Old folds, slight staining, minor edge wear and small paper losses visible. Linen-backed.

The plan focuses on Block 44, setting out numbered holdings between Pyrmont, Fig, Camden, Allen and Harris Streets. Printed wording includes “Realising rentals under leases secured by improvements” and advertises the Monday, 25 February 1895 auction by order of the Perpetual Trustee Co. Limited, administrators of the estate of the late John Harris. Terms call for a 25% cash deposit with the balance over one, two and three years at 5% per annum. Richardson & Wrench Limited are named as auctioneers, J. Stinson as solicitor and Loxton & Bullock as licensed surveyors. State Library of New South Wales subdivision-plan records confirm Harris Estate Sale No. 9 on 25 February 1895 and separately identify Block 44 as part of the John Harris/Ultimo Estate holdings. The strong display lettering and ruled property plan make the sheet both an auction advertisement and a precise record of late-nineteenth-century Pyrmont freeholds. The printer’s line reads “W.A. McLardy & Co., Sydney”. Held in the SLNSW.
