England: Cambridge Family--Charley (1872)


Figure 1.-- We have two portraits taken of Charley in 1872. He would have been about 13 years old. He wears a long pants suit. Ot looks like it may be a wool flannel suit. It is plain without any pattern. There is a matching vest (waistcoat). He wears a shirt that appears to have a small pointed collar. With it he wears a kind of ribbon tie. For some reason he has not combed his hair for the portrait. Image coutesy of the MD collection.

Notice his boater hat on the table. It has a particularly wide hat band.
