These pictures were taken inside the Myer building in Bourke Street Melbourne, and show the original cash tube system that was in place.
It was the curved shape of the pipes along the ceiling and intricate details on the opening of the tubes that caught my eye. I work in retail myself so it is interesting to me to see an old fashioned set up like this. Modern cash tube systems are very simple and hidden away, the average person would not notice them when they walk into a shop. It is interesting how everyday things were given so much time, energy and treatment. I suppose they were trying to show their customers and staff how sophisticated and advanced their system was.
