Several articles and letters in the Sydney Morning Herald give the date of the unveiling as Thursday 21 February 1929, not Friday 22nd. Read all about it - SMH 22/2/1929 p12 - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/16533398 More images - SMH 22/2/1929 p16 - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/16533131

pellethepoet beachcomber australia Thankyou, I see we are slowly running out of chocolates! The NSW Parliament site also states the ceremony was on the 21 February 1929 - I've updated the caption above. However, the date on the photo in the bottom left corner is 22/2/1929. AB

There's what looks like a chap on a penny-farthing over on the right, but closer inspection reveals it to (disappointingly) be half a cart.
