Sweets Stall at the Chatswood Congregational Church Garden Fete - 12 May 1906

    Their bonnets are certainly confections.

    It looks like the date 7/14 is right on top. So perhaps July 1914?
  • pennylrichardsca (now at ipernity) said:
    More likely July 14, Bastille Day.
  • Arden said:
    Thanks for your observations about this image. The date 7/14 probably refers to Bastille Day as pennylrichardsca notes. A related photograph from the Bain collection shows a similar scene with the caption reading "July 14 fete": hdl.loc.gov/loc.pnp/cph.3b06690 We can add this information to the description when we upload the database.
  • Wystan said:
    In 1913, July 14 fell on a Monday. The permanent-looking lunch building and bandstand suggest that the celebration may have been held in a public park.

    Some kind of Bastille Day celebration, note the date on this one:
  • Steph Kantorski said:
    As penny says, the date is definitely Bastille Day (July 14) - the girls seem to be playing a blindfold game to win dolls. Never heard of such a game, maybe someone has.
