Hattam Stores, Elsternwick, Coolamon NSW
Hattams men's and boy's wear shop is located at 383 Glenhuntly Road, Elsternwick in the Melbourne conurbation. The firm was established in 1879. It has a Rapid Wire system with three lines radiating from the cash office. The system is in working order, but not used for carrying cash. I photographed it in September 2004.
