This smiling cat was viewed out of a sixth floor window in the Myer Bourke Street building. It came as an unexpected and pleasant surprise. I did some research and found out that it was originally an advertisement for Mazda light globes and lamps, and that the other half of the ad was painted over during renovations on the Beehive Building (92-94 Elizabeth Street). I couldn't find a date for it, but judging from the colour pallet I would guess it was painted in the 1940s or 1950s. Here is a link to a picture of what the ad looked like before it was painted over.
