PHOTOGRAPHER’S “SHOP”
APPEAL COURT’S DECISION Press Association NEW PLYMOUTH, Friday. An appeal against a magistrate's decision that the premises of a certain itinerant photographer were not a shop within the meaning of the Act has been upheld by Mr. Justice Ostler/ Albert A. Prescott, a photographercontracted with Inspector Berryman to take six photographs in six positions for 2s 6d at 1.30 p.m. on a Saturday, a half-holiday. Prescott did the work himself and the sitter had no right of rejection. No assistants were involved. It: had been submitted that the pavment was for labour and not for goods sold; that the photographs were not chattels kept or offered for sale: that tho sale was made before the photographs were taken; and that the premises could not be defined as a shop. The judge reversed the magistrate’s finding! and held that the photographs were chattels, and that the premises constituted a shop. He said that an important point was that to the public they were accepted as a shop.
