| Notes | Mirror Advertising Sign - Campbell and Ehrenfried Co. Ltd. Pure Dominion Ale Believed to have come from Albert Hotel, Queen Street. Acquired by donor (circa 1960s) from a stock-pile of unused fittings from various Campbell and Ehrenfried outlets. Heather Pearce began working for Campbell and Ehrenfried in 1958 at the age of 16. The company was by then under the control of the Myers family. At the time Heather began work in the company office in the Strand Arcade, between Queen and Elliot Streets, Campbell and Ehrenfried owned 26 outlets in Auckland. Lady Margaret Myers (wife of Sir Kenneth, mother of Sir Douglas) used to do all the interior decorating in the pubs. Everything that came out of the pubs was put into storage beneath their NZ Wines and Spirits store in Wellesley St. One day she accompanied Lady Myers to the store where Lady Myers asked her if there was anything there she would like as it wasn’t being used. Heather and her husband were redoing their rumpus room at the time, so she chose the mirror. She believes the mirror came from the Albert Hotel on Queen Street. The Albert Hotel, built 1874, was modernised in 1962 and the name changed to the Coburg Hotel. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
