Boys' Historical Clothing: New Pages--July 2018



Figure 1.--This cabinet card portrait shows a little boy with two big sisters. They look to be about 5-13 years old. All three have their hair done in ringlet curls, although the girls do not have tightly done ringlets like their little brother, but have colored hair bows. And his hair is not parted in the middle like his sisters' hair. The portrait is a little unusual in that the boy is wearing a suit more associated with an older boy whose curls have been cut. The girls wear matching white dresses, perhaps withfrilly pinafores. All three wear black long stockings. The portrait is not dated, but the clothes and mount suggest it was taken about 1910. Ringlets like this for boys at the time were going out of style. The name of the studio is difficult to read, but they were located in St. Cloud, Minnesota.

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 us know if you have any question about this HBC feature.
