Administrative history
The drapery and general merchandise business was founded by Henry Marcus Clark in 1883, and was incoporated as a company in New South Wales on 16 October 1902. A head office was built in Central Square, Sydney in 1906 and later sold when a new building was established on the Western side of Central Square in 1928. Other country branches were established in New South Wales. In 1926 the company took over the retail business of Craig Williamson Pty Ltd in Melbourne, and in 1927 the Adelaide business of Miller Anderson Ltd. On 1 December 1966 the company was taken over by Waltons Ltd.
