View of Hinchinbrook Island from Dungeness, ca. 1885

from State Library of Queensland

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    Dungeness is the gateway to paradise. Offshore lies the serene waters of the channel, miles of mangrove-lined estuaries, the bays, beaches, waterfalls, and waterholes of idyllic tropical islands, the high misty peaks of Hinchinbrook Island, with a weather system unto itself, and of course the Great Barrier Reef.

    That dude on the right hasn't yet got the concept: He thinks it's a peep show. Great image!

    Wish I knew the proper names of some of the feathered hats these women are wearing to add them as tags - some interesting fashion history in this shot!
  • Joe said:
    This photo most likely dates from 1911 or soon after. Though the legislature of California passed a bill granting women the vote as early as 1893, it was vetoed by Governor Henry Markham. In 1896, a referendum to legalize woman suffrage in the state failed. It was not until the election of October, 1911, that another referendum passed by a large margin, and California's women voted for the first time later that year.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    Whyaduck: Thanks for the information about the probable date. We'll add the information in the source data and reload the description.

    I work in San Francisco. Nobody around here calls it "Frisco". Ever.
