Pau Seller Mural, Leith Street


Pau Seller MuralPau Seller Mural (10 August 2013)


The Pau Seller Mural (GPS: 5.42032, 10.33312) is a wall mural at Leith Street, George Town. It graces the wall of the Great Shanghai Dry Cleaning, at 52 Leith Street. The mural depicts an elderly pau seller. Based on the price on display - 40¢ and 20¢, the mural must be reminiscing a time long past, as such prices are but a foggy memory today.

The Pau Seller Mural celebrates a boutique hotel occupying Great Shanghai Dry Cleaning. Called Wil House, the accommodation provider occupies 50 and 52 Leith Street. The mural was created in mid July 2013 and was completed in early August.
