Street Architecture-Bradley, Newton, and Lamb’s new Auction Rooms and Warehouse, O’Connell and Spring Streets.

Rare colonial engraving of the auction rooms established by Walter Bradley, Edward Newton and brothers Horace and Charles Fisher Lamb. Their auction rooms were next to the Oriental Bank building which was on the corner of Spring and O’Connell streets before it was demolished.

After Bradley retired in 1889, it became known as Newton and Lamb before Edward Newton decided to establish his own business as an auctioneer and valuer in 1892.
