Figure 1.-- This cabinet card portrait shows unidentified American brother and sister, although they do not look very similar. It is undated, but was probably taken was taken in the late-1890s. The girl's puffed sleeve dress suggests the portrait was taken about 1895. The mount style seems more like the early-20th century, perhaps about 1905 so the late-1890s seems a reasonable guess. hey look to be about 8-10 years of age. The boys looks to be wearing an open jacket sailor suit, a dressy style. Mother has added a huge Fauntleroy collar and floppy bow to give the outfit a Fauntleroy look.

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.
