But 114 Abbey Street must have been either a house or factory or workshop or a shop in 1930 when the camera was made and sold.

So, anyone know Tom Walton, or Walton's shop/workshop? Does anyone have the camera!?

Tom Walton had a shop in Abbey St, the shop doorway was recessed back from the pavement & was tiled, all those premises were demolished circa 1966, when the Wesley Chaplel, and School were razed. There may be photo's in Accy Library
