United States Boys' Clothes: 1910s Generational Portrait


Figure 1.--This RPPC AZO postcard was mailed in 1910. It pictures mom and dad with the four children. Dad has a mustache and wears a three-piece suit. He holds a boy about 2 years old wearing a saolor tunic suit. Mom and the girls wear white dresses. The girls wears matching dresses and long stockings. They lived near Blackwell, Wisconsin. They live in a log and clap-board home. Note the oil paper windows. Their home was just as interesting as their clothing. Presumably dad built it. They surely were a farm family.
