Right you are. In fact counting the spokes of the back wheel give us 12 not ten.

That's an interesting photo with the headlight covers and the Japanese flag. It looks like a 1916 with Sankey wheels and KW Roadsmoothers.

State Library of Queensland lists it as Elizabeth St, Brisbane - Treasury Building maybe?

Ab4875 was correct in identifying the background location of this picture.
This is how the Treasury Building in Elizabeth Street, Brisbane looks today, over 100 years later.

Sad to say, but all these lovely ladies have in common, is that they are all in the grave by now.

That one picture back is what they called a [Running Board Picnic] Bob Hart use to tell me about down on the Cheat River in WV. We use to drive down to the River and sit on the Running and eat cheese and crackers with a bottle of Pop. This guy came driving and stop and ask if we were all right. Bob would say we are having a Running Board Picnic and laugh. I never forget that. Bob is gone now but we sure had some good times back then
