Genoveffa Gerardis Pasquale (Pat) Gerardis writes: The fruit shop was typical of a small fruit shop of the 1930s/40s era run by an Italian husband and wife. My father went to the markets every week day morning while my mother opened the shop and looked after myself and my twin sister. My father had the shop when my mother came out from Italy in 1938, so I think he had the business from the early 1930s. They sold he business in 1956 when my father retired following the death of my twin sister. The photo shows Domenico and Genoveffa Gerardis in their fruit shop. EDWARD AND STELLA MICELI'S FRUIT SHOP

My parents Edward and Stella Miceli moved there in 1954 because they were able to rent the premises cheaply and provide a modest lifestyle for their growing children, my sister Lydia and myself.

Assunta Macolino Vito and Assunta Macolino began renting their fruit shop in Stanley St, Surry Hills in 1952. With the family living upstairs, Vito and Assunta sold fruit and vegetables to a large clientele of local immigrants, including many Italian men, also beginning their new lives in Australia. The general running of the shop required a visit to the market every day, and the shop was open from 6am until midnight, seven days a week. The shop has since become a cafe. |
