Cash Register

Equipment

Not your ordinary cash box

The luxury of a silver cashier portrays the opulence of the era. When money was flush and the Wheatbelt was thriving. The National Cash Register was made in America circa 1905. Harry Hyam originally purchased the cash register to use in the drapery shop in Bruce Rock. The drapery shop opened in 1933, and Harry sold the business to Miss Jean Farrall in 1964. The four-drawer silver cash register was put into retirement in 1982.
