Flashback Friday!
The decorated horsedrawn cart is outside the store of T. A. Clarke, fruiterer and greengrocer, Toowoomba, Queensland, ca. 1906.

The occasion was the Austral Festival, where Clarke's won first prize that year. The Austral Society was founded in 1903 by George Essex Evans as a means of promoting the arts, science and industry and the Festival was one of their annual events. This building was later demolished and became the site of Wyeth's. (Information supplied with photograph.)
