    Julian Ashton "Old Houses, Cumberland Street", circa 1901, AGNSW www.artgallery.nsw.gov.au/work/5858+old-houses-cumberland...

    Numbers 97 and 95 to the right are demolished -
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Number 99 was evidently "Cumberland House", the subject of a drawing by Sir William Johnson in 1896 - nla.gov.au/nla.pic-an2962546
  • beachcomber australia said:
    I think this is the same view today - Cumberland and Gloucester Streets were later realigned so it is confusing - Google Street View

    beachcomber australia Thanks for these links. The painting is beautiful and you can even spot the lamp in it that you see in the photo above. Modern view not quite so attractive! AB

    I wonder if he was around today, 'E. Beyer' might flog his boots on eBay.
  • pellethepoet said:
    beachcomber australia Well spotted!!! Your eyes are clearly better than mine. However its not Beyer but Dever. Edward Dever is listed in Sands (1888) as a bootmaker trading from 68 Cumberland Street. - www3.photosau.com/CoSSands/scripts/home.asp (see Trades and Professional - European Manufacturers, p. 854) WARNING: The downloads are mighty big (but mighty useful!)

    pellethepoet THAT IS SO B R I L L I A N T !
    I had a hunch you would come up with the answer. Well done!
    It is good when things just . . . dovetail.

    And my corny joke now looks very corny!

    Great sleuthing, pelle and beachcomber!

    I 'think' this bootmaker owned the hotel across the street, known as the "jack's delight" there is an advertisement in the SMH of a bootmaker at that location at that time who owned the 'former hotel', I will try to locate it.
