RE: You’ve got Buckley’s! - The story of William Buckley

in #history7 years ago

There is also a theory the the term Buckleys and None comes from the department store 'Buckley's and Nunn' as in the positive advertising sense - that it there range was so big you only had two chances of finding something if you went to Buckley's and Nunn. Buckley's and Nunn is now the David Jones stores on either side of Bourke Street.

Did the store just use a existing saying, or did it come from them? Who knows....

Here's the existing store, note the Buckley's and Nunn signgage above David Jones one...
