Boys' Historical Clothing: New Pages--August 2009


Figure 1.--Here we have the children of a well-to-do Melbourne family. This wonderful carte de visite portrait shows a nanny with four young boys. You can tell the lady is a nanny because she wears a kind of uniform. She clearly has a very close personsal relationship with the boys. The older boy is wearing a dark suit and has his derby hat on the floor. The three younger boys are dressed in light-colored knee pants outfits.

we have created this page for HBC readers to check the new pages being added to our site. 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.
