Summary
[edit]DescriptionThe Hordern Tree.jpg |
English: Notes: The Hordern business was originally established by a free immigrant from England, Anthony Hordern, in 1823, as a drapery shop. It went on to become Anthony Hordern & Sons with a famous department store in Sydney. The crest on their coat of arms was a budding oak tree with the motto: "While I live I'll grow". It appeared above all the store's window fittings and on all its stationery. The six storey Sydney store built 1905 was once the largest department store in the world.
A Port Jackson fig tree located on a ridge on the south side of the Razorback range near Camden, bore a striking resemblance to the tree pictured in the trade emblem. In the 1920s Anthony Hordern arranged with the land owners at the Razorback to erect a hoarding sign alongside bearing the store motto.
