Boys' Historical Clothing: New Pages--June 2008



Figure 1.--These two boys, presumably brothers, had their portrait taken during 1907-09. The portrait with a postcard back is not dated, but the four diamond AZO stamp box helps us date the image. Note that the younger boys about 5-6 years old wears a sailor tiunic while his older brother about 9 years old wears a sailor suit. Note the beach-theme backdrop. We suspect that the portrait was taken at a beach resort. Both boys wear black long stockings, but the younger boy is wearing sandals.

Some HBC readers tell us that they would like to be able to access new pages, but do not want to receive E-mails on every new page added to HBC. We have also for several years now experienced problems dealing with AOL. Thus we have created this page for HBC readers. We will list new pages or existing pages to which we have added additional information. We used to maintain a page like this. We know from this experience that we sometimes forget to add a new page, but we will try to remember to do this as much as possible. There will not be a link on our home page so you will want to add this to your favorites/book marks. We plan to only make this page available to readers who support HBC. There may be occasional changes in the URL. Just let me know if you have any question about this new HBC feature.
