    Museums of History NSW - State Archives Collection Thanks for posting this! One of a series of four (?) of the Harrington Street / Argyle Street intersection. See notes and extensive comments particularly about the Ragged School here -

    I think the Will Daley posters look very tattered (ragged?!) in this photo. And there are no shadows. And more barrels. So taken at a later date than August 1901?

    This is good - a Will Daley poster which was already looking tatty by 7/8/1901. I was trying to think how long a paper poster might last in full sun in the winter. It was a Wednesday.
