Cars are, except one, all late 1920s, i.e. at the end of the vintage period. 3rd car at the tree centre photo is 1930s, enlarging the photo over on Flickr it either has a mid-1930s ‘bustle boot’ rear body, or a large accessory trunk or, if the approx. 1929-1930 tourer at photo centre front does have white WW2 “blackout lines” painted on its fender (as it faintly appears too)then the shape at the rear of the 1930s sedan could, just as a suggestion, be a charcoal burner – which would indicate that the photo is WW2 period. Something to ponder.
Anyway, photo can not be before about 1935 going by the age of the newest car visible.
Oh and interesting that the 2 storey light coloured building is the local
“Chevrolet Car & Trucks, Buick and Pontiac” agent.
