Description

Unique IDA-00330498SeriesLetters Received, 1843-1899 [Municipal Council of Sydney]DateBetween 28th September 1894 and 10th October 1894Date qualifierexactFormatVolume - HardcoverDescriptionPetition. Jacobs Bros and other residents of George Street Haymarket. Advertisements and panoramic views are displayed at the the top of premises at 617 George Street Haymarket. The exhibition attracts crowds of people nightly in front of their shops with the result that they are considerably hampered in their business. Attached is a report by Richard Seymour, Inspector of Nuisances: the display consists of lime-light pictures reflected upon the side of a building. As they are mere fleeting shadows and unfixed advertisements, there is no law by which they may be dealt with. If the footpaths continue to be obstructed an officer may be placed between the hours of 7 and 10 o'clock on Saturday nights during the exhibition, however the police are responsible for the prevention of the obstruction complained of. Notes: inform police.LanguageEnglish (eng)Digitised recordYes
