“Marie Brady on Her Birthday”
This is one of those, most favorite PHOTOS, that I have of my Mother, when she was a little girl!
Several times I saw a PHOTO, just like the above, that reminded me of this PHOTO.
If you watch “Turner Classics Movies” in the evenings, and I am not sure exactly when – but they have a very large “Scrapbook” where the pages are opening from one page to the next. I am not sure which evenings or for what special night’s show, but pages of the this large scrapbook are flipping open and slowly, so that the viewer can see and view quickly some special items, and if ever you are watching – get a real good look at the third inside page on the left.
As the pages are turned backwards, is when you can see a large enough size PHOTO of a girl, in a white dress, just like the dress on “Marie Brady” – in the above PHOTO. Everytime I do try to see if and or who they have in that dress, as that dress does stand out – once you have seenit!
The above PHOTO is earl 1900. Maybe up to 1910 as I am not good as judging a person’ age, just by the dress. The dress does look like a “PARTY DRESS” and for the time period, they did wear dresses that were down to the ankle. Also, due to the color of the hair, “MARIE” did say something about being called, “Cotton-top” before the color turned to a blond, and then brown.
Just looking at this PHOTO – was wondering – how many “petticoats” and or “bloomer” type or “pantaloons” would a young child need to wear – just to make the dress look so nice?
Just had to add this – as I did
not think that they were
still available?
