A date, a date... my kingswood for a date!
« on: Tuesday 13 May 08 09:32 BST (UK) »
Hi folks... I believe this photo was probably taken in Queensland, Australia (I only have a digital copy of it). Would anyone be able to take a stab at the date it was taken? I believe the folk were German.

As always, thanks so much for your time, wonderful people!

Cheers
Ger Smiley

I'm going to go for 1900.

No gigot sleeves, but signs of a turn up. No pompadour hair style. Skirts to the ground and all the men wearing neck ties.

Time will tell how close I am to the experts opinion.

I'd go with just a little later than Rog's guess, maybe about 1910 or so, judging by the ladies' hairstyles...
