Boys' Historical Clothing: New Pages--March 2009


Figure 1.--This is a class at the Sekundar Oerlikon near Zurich. Most of the boys seem to be wearing short trousers, either with sweaters or as part of short trouser suits. This photo was taken in Zurich on February 26, 1932. The rather heavy-set teacher, Herr Wydler, is standing in the center, or is he the other adult male further to the left? Only one teacher's name is given, although two appear in the photograph. This might eventually help identify the school.

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.
