Our Spanish archive is still very limited. Thus we are not sure about the different outfitts Spanish boys wore for First Communion. We do note boys weraring sailor suits in the 1960s. Long pants white sailor suits ssemm popular. We see a First Communion service in Spain during 1969 on the previous page. The boys all wear the same long pants sailor suit outfits. These would be suits bought just for First Communiom. They would not have been used much afterwards. I am not sure if this was a school group or just a group organized by the local church. We are unsure just how popular sailor suits wre for First Communion, but we notice other Spanish boys wearing sailor suits in the 60s. Here we see another example (figure 1).
