Newcastle Post Office With People

The Newcastle post office is an icon of Hunter Street. But architecture aside, we most often seem to see it without people! If you have any photographs of people inside using the post office, I'd love to know. 


Rally at Newcastle Post Office, Cnr Hunter and Bolton Streets, Newcastle, NSW
 - the banner on the side of the stand refers to "Recruiting Office" 
so the date of photograph is likely to be between September 1916
