Boys' Historical Clothing: New Pages--February 2006



Figure 1.--This is a cabinet card photo of two siblings, affectionately holding hands while the photo was being taken. They are both wearing dresses with very large lace collars. I think they are both boys, but I can’t tell for sure. Photo was taken by Pryor in La Crosse, Wisconsin. It is not dated, but we would guess was taken about 1880. Unfortunately The boys are not identified.

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.
