This unidentified German class photo was dated 1957. Unfortunately we do not know the name of the school oe where it was located. The background suggests a small village school. The children look like the fitst year class which would be 6 year olds. Two of the boys are wearing long trousers, but most wear short pants with long stockings. This is about thre time tights began to appear in Germany, but the looseness of the fit suggests long stockings. Notice the different shades. We believe they are most likely various tan, beige, and dark brown stockings. One boy wears three-quarter socks pulled up. At least two of the boys wear lederhosen with long stockings. One point worthy of note is the backpacks for books that the children are carrying. They can't be seen, but the straps on top of the sweaters show thatthey are wearing them.
