Boys' Historical Clothing: New Pages--March 2015


Figure 1.--A reader tells us, "This is sort of the scene my parents saw in London in 1965. My mother was so thrilled that she insisted I wear my hair like these two boys and bought me clothes similar to them. Espadrilles and not the T-bar as she tried that 5 years earlier and it did not work. I do remember wearing shorts and my mother wanting me to wear the knee socks which I quickly pulled down so they looked like everyone else’s."

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 us know if you have any question about this HBC feature.
