These pictures say in the bottom right hand corner . Photographs courtesy of Oxley Memorial Library. Feel like and look like there on old paper. Have tried searching XXXX sites and Oxley library sites but have come up with nothing.
Pic 1. Brisbane: August , 1901 When James Trackson imported Brisbane's first motor car, a two-cylinder De Dion Boutan powered by an internal combustion engine.
Pic 2. Brisbane: February , 1893 . A boating party prepares to set out along a Brisbane city street to salvage supplies from a flooded department store. All kinds of boats, even steam packets , were a familiar sight cruising along Queen street at the height of the flood.
Pic 3. Brisbane: November , 1897. South's first electorate cricket team strikes a fearsome pose. It was South's 19th century batting hope F. Bolger who scored 118 runs in what was probably Queensland's first cricket century.
Please only responses from someone that actually knows something about these pics. Cheers.
