Great little #ArtDeco #shopfront in #littlecollinsstreet in the Royal Arcade building; don’t know date or designer. One of melbourne’s most striking #artdeco #shopfront. So #modernist looks like might be new repro, but no its 30s. It’s a shopfront inthe edwardian rebuild of the #littlecollinsstreet back end of the #royalarcade. Was almost lost when the shopfronts were tidied up, though in this case it was going to the made to match the 60s granite jewellry shopfront next door. Madness. Lucky an eagle eyed national trust worker stepped in and complained (it was me).
