Unidentified Brother and Sister (United States, 1924)


Figure 1.-- Here we see an unidentified brother and sister in 1924. The children look to be about 8-12 years old. We are not sure where they lived, perhaps the Mid-West. They seem very close, looking caringly at each other, obviously enjoying having their picture taken. I rather thought of Scout and Jem from 'To Kill a Mockigbird', but tghey were not that clinging with each other and of course Scout hated dresses. The girl has bobbed hair dine in bangs, a popular hair style for girls at the time. She wears a plain dress with a waistband, knee socks, and "T"-strap shoes. Her big brother wears a flat cap, a Norfolk knickers suit, and dark long stockings. The snapshot was dated 1924.
