Queen Street/Eldon Street (corner) (view 2)
An early (c.1900) view of the corner of Queen Street (right) and Eldon Street (left) featuring Mason's jeweller's shop. John Mason was here from 1886-1910. The shop standing on the corner/adjacent to Eldon Street is E.Nash, the chemist. Nash is advertising numerous health products including 'chest tonic'. Patent medicines were big business then, as most ordinary people could not afford a doctor.
