The neigbour of the hotel Južni kolodvor was the emigrant office of Edvard Kristan who turned to advantage the concrete built fence for an advertising sign “Havre-via Southampton-New York”, and “Ed Kristan, Ljubljana”, which triggered complaints of his competitors.

In the right upper corner of the photograph is the signboard of photographer Davorin Rovšek at whom many emigrants took photos before leaving for the world.
