As a matter of "co-incidence" I have a copy of a letter from Fry Bros dated
Feb 1910.
My interest is the Sawyers Gully History.
They quoted on the construction of the telephone box for the Sawyers Gully
Post Office.

The letterhead is probably the most ornate that I have ever seen. It
includes a detailed drawing of their show room.

The caption reads
"FRY BROTHERS,
CABINET MAKERS, FRENCH POLISHERS, UPHOLSTERERS, and UNDERTAKERS.

Drapes and Blinds of all descriptions made on the Premises.
Furniture Packed, Removed & Stored.
Houses Furnished throughout, Best Material & Workmanship guaranteed."
