A Couple of Colonial Revivalists

A Couple of Colonial Revivalists
A photo of ruffles or frills for the Vintage Photos Theme Park.

A couple in colonial costumes with the customary ruffles and frills. I'm not sure when or where this photo was taken, but perhaps they're dressed up to celebrate George Washington's Birthday. Or maybe they're accompanying Master Nettleton (below) to his dance recital.

Elwood Nettleton at His Dancing Class Reception, 1911

These look very similar to Betsy Ross family paper dolls that I had - especially that young boy. I'll see if I can hunt them up to post.
Wonderful ruffles photographs. I would have died for that dress as a young girl!!

These are great examples. I notice the young dancer has his hand firmly on his sword.

Geez, I didn't even notice he was holding a sword!!! After seeing the sword now, I really can't understand how I could have missed it originally. Must be one of those forest-for-the-trees things.
