Most boys wore various types of pants with tunic suits. We note, however, a few photograhic portraits in whivcj boys see, to be weaing skirts under their tunics. We have not found mny examplesm, but we have found a a few. The images are not rel clear as to what the boys were wearing, but they certainly lkook like a skirt under the tunic. The examples we have found so far from the 1870s and we think the early-80s. We do not know how common these outfits were, nut there rarity in the photograohic record suggest that they not very common at all. We suspect that they were not mass produced, limiting gthe numbers ctually worn. .
