Staff of the department store, T. C. Beirne's Queen competition, ca.1916

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  T.C. Beirne & Co. has a proud history of contribution both culturally and economically to Brisbane. Beirne’s as it was often referred to, held a position of prominence as a retailer of choice for decades during the early 1900’s to the 1960’s. T.C. Beirne (known as ‘T.C. Beirnes’ or just ‘Beirnes’) was a long-running department store that stablished Fortitude Valley as the place to shop for fashion in Brisbane. They catered to the middle of the market, offering a comprehensive range of women’s, men’s, and children’s clothing and footwear, as well as fabric, haberdashery, and other household goods. The early success and growth of Thomas Beirne’s drapery business demonstrates the opportunities Queensland held for immigrant fashion retailers Beirne’s retained its independence until David Jones bought it out in 1961. The Valley store continued to trade as T. C. Beirne until being rebadged as David Jones in 1966. The Fortitude Valley store was closed in 1973, in a widespread move by David Jones to cut costs. Thomas Charles Beirne (1860–1949), an Irishman, was the founder and director of the T.C. Beirne department stores, remaining active in the business right up until his death. What started as a modest drapery business made him one of Queensland’s most successful businessmen, and among the first Australian millionaires. Source: tcbandco.com.au/history/

Eveleigh Workshops during the 1917 railway strike

from Museums of History NSW - State Archives Collection

• Museums of History NSW - State Archives Collection said:

  Comment from reader T. Edmonds: School boys volunteered to work for the railways during the strike and were used in low skilled jobs. Many of those in the photo appear to be of school age and the chalk on the TAM sleeping car includes references to Sydney Grammar and Shore. Sleeping cars possibly being used for accommodation.
