Here are some family and children photos from around 1938 (according to the date on the pics)…. The children are wearing cute white pressed collars and simple clothing! It’s interesting to see the women wearing cloche-like turbans, showing that the fashion changes from the 1920s fashions were more gradual than merely stopping in 1929 (atleast for everyone but the very rich). Since this family was in the midwest during the Great Depression, fashion changes probably took a little longer. It’s interesting to see how “normal” people dressed in the late 1930s.
