Description

DescriptionThe Retrac series (Carter spelt backwards), are thought to have been available between 1907 and 1916. Blackall Memorial in foreground. Governor Blackall was the second Governor of Queensland from 1868-1871. The memorial was originally a drinking fountain and built in 1879. The architect was F.D.G. Stanley. It was moved to the corner of Outridge Street and Chelmsford Avenue, Denmark Hill, Ipswich in 1927 when the traffic became too busy around Nicholas and Brisbane Streets. Reverse of postcard mentions that an Eisteddfod was being held in Ipswich at the time the postcard was sent, 25 March 1915.
