PART FIVE - 1922 Divett PlaceD
ivett Place is an anomaly. I have a few newsprint records from July,
1922 that show Scott Bonnar used another address
alongside the Chapel
Street one. This was at
24 and then
22A Divett Place in the CBD. In
other words, Scott Bonnar was operating from two addresses: Chapel Street
and Divett Place.
I know this because all other newsprint advertisements show Chapel Street
as the company address; and these continued up until
early 1923. After that,
one single address emerges ...
Mill Street, Adelaide. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.outdoorking-forum.com.au/forum/uploads/usergals/2016/12/full-7392-31496-1922_07_mail_01july_p21.jpg)

The building that housed the Company at Divett Place survives to this day,
and its short use and purpose by Scott Bonnar is open to speculation ...
My best guess is that the Company wanted to move back into the Adelaide
city heart - to capture welding jobs - probably in the automotive field
(cars, bikes, etc.). The ads, and architecture of the building, suggest
welding repair work was conducted via a drive-thru to a rear courtyard.
