  I think this print is backwards, based on the lettering of "Proto" on the metal and on the bags.

Aftermath of Kalbar fire, 1920

  DISASTROUS FIRE IN QUEENSLAND. BRISBANE, February 17. A disastrous fire occurred at Kalbar, formerly Englesburg, in the West Moreton district, early this morning. It was discovered at about 1.30 a.m., in Munford's refreshment rooms, on the main Boonah road, and raged until about 4 o'clock. Practically all the inhabitants turned out to fight the flames, but they were greatly handicapped through having to use water from house tanks. They were successful, however, in saving several large places of business. About 100 yards of buildings have been totally destroyed. The demolished premises include the school of arts and the local branch of the Bank of Queensland. Only some of the places are insured. It is not yet possible to estimate the damage.
