Boys' Historical Clothing: New Pages--February 2009


Figure 1.--We are not sure what the boys are looking at in the store window here. This is a useful impage because the back view gices us a good look at the boys' school satchels. This looks to have been taken in the 1950s. The boy on the left wears the classic style satcjel (note there is no rag and sponge attached). The boy on the left wears amore modern style. The straps ate thiner and the satchel is not as voluminous.

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.
