Figure 1.--An Italian reader has provided this image of a school in Parenzo. This town is now located in Croatia, but in 1924 was part of Italy. The boys here are dressed differently than some of the other images we have from Italy during the 1920s. We believe that this is primarily a swasonal matter. The image here looks to be taken in warm Summer weather. The boys wear casual shirts "T"-shirt type shirts. Several are done with square sailor collars and short pants. Several of the boys wore singlets.

An Italian reader has provided this image of a school in Parenzo. This town is now located in Croatia, but in 1924 was part of Italy. I believe that this was an area awarded Italy after the World War I peace settlement. Germany and Italy occupied Yugoslavian Croatia during World War II. The boys here are dressed differently than some of the other images we have from Italy during the 1920s. We believe that this is primarily a swasonal matter. The image here looks to be taken in warm Summer weather. The boys wear casual shirts "T"-shirt type shirts. Several are done with square sailor collars and short pants. Several of the boys wore singlets. This was a style not worn in many other countries. As with other images from the 1920s, it was an all boy class.
