Mélanie Wow, that's great. thanks!
The National Archives UK said:
Well found! Thank you so much for posting that. Fascinating to see the two images alongside one another.
Mélanie said:
I developed my sense of observation for this kind of detail. I love the architecture and ghost signs. As you can see in my album, I have a collection of several ghost signs, collected everywhere in Montreal.

Thomas Golden was the proprietor of the Brown Jug Saloon, the brick building on the right in this photograph, from 1862 to 1866. His head bartender purchased the business in late 1866 and changed the sign adding his name, Augustus Cecil Couves. This photograph predates 1867. Thomas Golden left Victoria on a ship bound for San Francisco in which he tried to commit suicide by jumping overboard. He was rescued but ended up in a California asylum.
