Photo kiosk 1949

By Brian Bird

This beautiful photo of No. 1 Kiosk Photo Service on a rainy night was taken by photographer Brian Bird. Advertising a 24-hour turnaround for developing and printing a roll of film, kiosks like these were centrally located for the convenience of city workers. This kiosk was in the Royal Arcade, which ran between George and Pitt streets across from the Queen Victoria Building. At the time it was one of six covered shopping arcades in the centre of Sydney, but only the Strand Arcade has survived.
