Flower Sellers on Wyndham Street
The flower sellers on Wyndham Street were relocated to On Lan Street with the demolition of the Yee Sang Fat Building in 1930. However, the move was unpopular and bad for business. As a consequence, a new area on D' Aguilar Street south of of Wellington Street was made available. HK Telegraph 5 April 1930 refers.
Marion Davies
There is a sign reading Marion Davies and (hardly readable) "The Cardboard Lover". This is a silent movie from 1928. Just wonder in which theatre this was shown as the nearby Coronet Theatre closed in 1925.
