Crane & Sons Ltd., Musical Instrument Manufacturers 40 Upper Sackville Street, Mentioned here. The trees here look older than today's photo. This photo was dated as circa 1911 definitely earlier than 1911.

The history of Clerys began in May 1853 when Mc Swiney, Delany and Co. opened ‘The New or Palatial Mart' on the site of the present store in what was then Sackville Street. In 1883, the premises was taken over and renamed by M. J. Clery (d.1896) So After 1896 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clerys

Hawksby's didn't advertise in Freeman's themselves, but F.W. Hawksby is listed in 1883 (28rd April) as a stockist of McMahon and Twohils' Irish-made silk and fur hats. Or, as the advertisement put it - "HATS! HATS!! HATS!!!"

DannyM8 Yep pre-1911. No sign of Parnell Monument.

Ruby "Jeanne" Gordon (26 January 1885 – 22 February 1952) was a Canadian opera singer active during the early 1900s. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeanne_Gordon

Richard Norton are you able to verify which woman is which?

I"m guessing it's the one with the name written under it, as that's a Bain convention. Not sure either is Jeanne Gordon, though. demokidblog.wordpress.com/2010/07/22/jeanne-gordon-opera-... flic.kr/p/e2RtjZ timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1952/02/23/92663544... forgottenoperasingers.blogspot.com/2015/04/jeanne-gordon-...

Art Siegel, you're right about the Bain captioning convention -- I had forgotten that. I asked about verification as I, too, think this needs more research.

There three are other Bain Photos of women titled with "Gordon" only: - www.loc.gov/pictures/collection/ggbain/item/ggb2006005686/ - www.loc.gov/pictures/collection/ggbain/item/ggb2006012100/ - www.loc.gov/pictures/collection/ggbain/item/ggb2006005685/ I think they are all showing Jeanne Gordon, if so, it's the woman on the left. (The names in the Bain photos are usually written above the persons, but on these photos the name is rather in the corner.) Another possibility would be Ruth Gordon (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruth_Gordon), s. also www.loc.gov/pictures/collection/ggbain/item/ggb2006005123/ and photo in The Seattle star., June 26, 1920, Page 11 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn87093407/1920-06-26/ed-...

The Lathouras brothers—Jim, Jack, Mick, and Mark—opened the Café Royal and the Elite Café on the main street of Bundaberg in 1920. At that time, the Londy family’s Blue Bird Café and Harry Lewis’s Marble Café also traded in Bourbong Street. Greek shopkeeping was a widespread phenomenon. Greek cafés of the period were elegant shops with silky oak furniture, marble bars and mirrored back bars, monogrammed crockery, and gleaming soda fountains. Lathouras Bros sold icy-cold fruit drinks, sodas, and ice cream sundaes. In addition, they specialized in making confectionery for sale through both shops—rocky road, jellies, coconut rough, and a nougat and marshmallow creation called a Rocket—and Jim sold homemade ice cream from a horse-drawn cart. Beginning with light refreshments, the menu at the Royal and the Elite soon expanded to include roasts, mixed grills, fish dinners, steaks and the like. Everything was freshly made. If some Greek migrants spent a lifetime behind a counter in a country café, many of their descendants gravitated to Brisbane. Greek café stories now reside with people like Goldie Lathouras, whose father Mick came to Australia at the age of ten and ran the Elite Café until his death in 1957. Goldie vividly recalls the Easter eggs her father created. An enormous sugar egg had pride of place in the front window in the weeks leading up to Easter. It had a wristwatch on top—ladies’ one year, gents’ the next—and was raffled to raise money for the ambulance service. Mick also made personalized chocolate eggs and sugar eggs with the name of the lucky recipient on top. These eggs contained lollies, a toy, a watch, a necklace, or some other treat supplied by the customer. Source: greekcafesinbrisbane.wordpress.com/2018/02/18/lathouras-b... Under Goldie’s influence, the Lathouras family has been active throughout this project in documenting the Lathouras Bros story. On their behalf, Goldie lodged a significant collection of café artefacts with the John Oxley Library. Crockery emblazoned with café logos, silver teapots and coffeepots, docket books and photographs, sundae dishes and lolly packets help to tell the story of the Café Royal and the Elite Café. Along with an illustrated booklet, which was written by Goldie and designed by fourth-generation Lathourases, Theo and Melissa, these precious objects tell the story of the Lathouras family, who had cafés in the main street of Bundaberg from the early 1920s to the late 1970s.
