WCS. 17 July 1957. Ceduna. Large Business Premises Opened. Last Wednesday morning Mr J D Spry opened his new premises in Poynton Street. The spacious modern building is a splendid acquisition to the town and a credit to the enterprise and progressiveness of its owner. Build of cement brick, the large shop measures 80 ft by 51 ft.

The front is designed in pale green and black tiles and has large plate glass windows and the interior is painted in various colours in contemporary style. Display bays and island counters show the large and comprehensive stock to the best advantage. Fluorescent lighting throughout is a feature. No doubt Mr Spry is justifiably proud of the new premises, which is a culmination of the 26 years he has been in business in Ceduna. A contractor, Mr A Walker, was the builder of Mr J Spry’s new store recently opened in Poynton Street.
