Back Page - Boys in Dresses


Cool

Here are a few children in play clothes and “Sunday” clothes. When young, boys and girls often wore the same sort of smock or dress. It was probably more of a convenience than anything else. Gender specific clothing for children started becoming more prevalent it seems, around 1920 or 1930.

Most of these are certainly little boys. Some may be girls with very short hair too. You decide.

Thanks to
Tattered and Lost
for the idea for this set.

Traditional Welsh Costumes


Learn something new every day. Learning new things keeps your mind open, ready for new ideas, new understanding. It keeps you alert, young.

These three photographs were found in an "antique" store in East Texas.

They are all what is referred to as "Real Photo Post Cards."

They are different in every other way except content. I have learned that they are of people in Welsh Traditional Clothing. Here they are, each with the reverse side.

Perhaps more examples of this tradition will be found. LOST GALLERY will add them here on this page.

THE KIDS Lesson one. It is always a mystery how a photograph of any of these precious children could end up lost or abandoned. Here are a few. You will probably say "Ooh..." at least once.
