Hi there

Can you rescan this please at between 300-600 dpi. This is only scanned at 72dpi and is very pixilated. You will get better restores with a higher resolution.

going by the width of the hats I would suggest a date of about 1908 to 1910.

I'd extend that to 1913...
Plenty of flying saucer hats in the 1913 Girls Annual, with roses on, and things....
