Exclusive pic#47 sailor suit boy and tiger



A 12 1/2 year old boy in a striped short and tight sailor suit with a faked tiger. 1910s. Name starting with M similar to Maximilian. I haven't read that Suetterlin language for some time and don't have the time for research. There are many old styled names anyway.

Funny pic. First I thought that the tiger is a real-sized paper tiger but probably later added. Typical fashion and flat hat but somehow looks different than other sailor suits.

Long neckline at front (so probably short collar flap on the back). High and striped inside dickey. Boy looks younger to me. Not my favourite pic, but still interesting. As usual high res on picasa (magnifying glass).

-Year in film: 1890s
-Country: Austria
-Who in clothing: 2 boys ~10, sailor suit
-Who in clothing 2: uniforms, breeches
-Available on DVD: no ?

-Rating: ***
-Comment: 2 boys in long blue sailor suits and white sailor's hats. Of course also lot of others in costumes. Uniforms. Also white pants (tights ?)

Had been aired yesterday. Also available online at 3sat mediathek.

Quite interesting (to those who like ballets or man in tights). I have seen most of it at high speed. Rather few scenes of the boys. Some boys in blue (non sailor) uniforms with white pants not sure if tights.

Some others in other clothes / knickers but rather few close up scenes. Nurejew version by Marius Petipa and Lew Konovalova.

Rating 2-3.

Krupp – Eine deutsche Familie - part 2



Also Lederhosen in part 2. As assumed Theo Trebs in longer Lederhosen and I think all of his 3 younger siblings mainy in shorter buckskin Lederhosen with suspenders. Set in 1920 Austria. Also a hunting scene but all rather short. The person on the first entry was a man in Lederhosen on the left. One brief scene with Theo Trebs in the short blue sailor suit, sitting on the floor (mainly front view, rear view is in the dark). Some few scenes of the other little kids in sailor suits but from a distance, also in other clothes. In the middle of the movie the setting turns to the mid 30s with grown-up Alfried (different actor) and nothing of interest there. Last part this evening, but I don't assume much more there (although 30s and 50s, but who knows).

Few scenes of longer Lederhosen and the other kids are very young. Rating 5 for this part. No scenes of interest in part 3.

Update: Krupp – Eine deutsche Familie

 

As announced, part 1 had been aired yesterday. Theo Trebs and his 3 younger siblings (2 girls, 1 boy?) in different, interesting sailor suits. Also an older teen girl and woman as shown in my main entry. It starts in 1901 and also showing uniforms (men) and sometimes swapped to the 1920s. Only short scenes in about the middle of this part. So quite disappointing although quite good sailor suits. Quite long and wide collar and interesting different kids of the siblings (long V neckline of the kid in the other blue sailor suit in the middle. White dickeys without stripes. No Lederhosen yet (not even longer Lederhosen).

It's quite rare to see teen boys in sailor suits. I hope for Lederhosen scenes or other kids. Episode 2 will be aired this evening, maybe even better or more scenes? I will update this later. Rating 6 for now only due to this brief scenes.Could be much better.

Die Igelfreundschaft



Family film. Director Hermann Zschoche
-Year: 1962
-Year in film: 1960s
-Country: East Germany, CSSR
-Who in clothing: boys ~10, Lederhosen
-Who in clothing 2: boys shorts
-Available on DVD: no ?
-I own: no
-Clothing occurrence: low *
-Rating:  7/10
-Rating: *******
-Comment: At least 3 boys at school in buckskin Lederhosen with suspenders (near the beginning /18 min. and end). Also many boys in shorts (including the main character) and also (soviet) scarves in blue.

Note sure if the beige shorts of the main character at the beginning are of (buckskin) leather. I don't think so. At least without suspenders. The boys with real Lederhosen are looking much better. Though rather few scenes only.

Many kids dancing outside (mountain landscape) in traditional clothes but not in Lederhosen. Very rare. What else should I say about this movie? Typical but good DEFA movie. 67 minutes. Czech title "Uprchlik" There's a DVD but looks like non-official.

Rating 7-8 for the boy on the left (also sitting, rating 4-5 for the main character). I also want to remind once more to the today's series Krupp - Eine deutsche Famile.

I can't say exactly as the pics are from the official trailer in the same low resolution (not on YouTube). Also at least men in uniforms.

ON TV. Part 1 next Tuesday on German 3sat.

At least confirmed setting from 1901, 1930s to the 1950s.

Looks quite interesting, although I don't expect many (good) Lederhosen scenes.

Rating 5-6 for now. Update: Now I've seen part 1. Even good sailor suit of the Theo Trebs and even 3 younger siblings. Previously rated 5 now 6 for now. Good Sailor suit pic:

Schloss Einstein ep 790

After a long time Johnny again in longer Lederhosen (brief scene near the beginning wearing a red vest over them). S16e50. Also in underwear (blue shorts). Maybe he is wearing those under the Lederhosen. Also a younger boy sitting in longer Lederhosen (brief dream scene). At the end Johnny and a teen girl in marine uniforms (jackets and hats, but no sailor suits/dresses/collars). Maybe also of interest Tommy (older teen boy, still wearing braces and since a long time not his longer curly hair) in an octopus costume (lycra).

No need for showing again Johnny's Lederhosen (scenes are as far not as good as in earlier episodes). See also my posts in this and both my other blogs. He is also getting thinner and thinner and/or taller. Colorful episode. Johnny was also kissing a girl but didn't feel anything.

Rebroadcasting as usual next Saturday (or online). Rating 5. Main entry (including other boys in short Lederhosen) at

Exclusive pic#46 class forest sailor suit



This photo postcard showing a class in the woods 1910s or 1920s. Only 2 kids in sailor suits. A boy in the middle (blurred while moving) and 2 kids further right with longer hair probably a girl?

I can't say much more about it. Probably Germans. Boys with short hair, some wearing ties and suspenders. Maybe some are brothers. Also note the flowers in the girls' hairs. Is this some kind of fest? May? Also funny the teacher.

Every girl has flowers in the hair. So the 2nd kid in sailor suit is also a boy? Big eyes, long hair. Looks extremely feminine for these days. But I don't like this pic.

Oberstadtgass

oberstadtgass-leder2oberstadtgass-leder

Drama starring Schaggi Streuli
-Year: 1956
-Year in film: 1950s
-Country: Switzerland
-Who in clothing: boys ~12, Lederhosen
-Who in clothing 2: boys shorts, shortalls
-Available on DVD: yes
-I own: yes, TV recording
-Clothing occurence: very low *
-Rating:  3/10
-Rating: ***
-Comment: 2 boys (or maybe he's the same) in buckskin Lederhosen with suspenders. 2 brief scenes. Also some boys, including the main character Mäni (Jürg Grau) in shorts (one in black shorts but most in beige or light colored shorts). 1 young boy in shortalls (see my bib overalls blog).

Finally another Lederhosen movie. Had just been aired. Although in Switzerland unfortunately very few Lederhosen scenes. Pic 1 showing a boy at the wedding at the very end of the movie (in the middle, rear view only) and in the middle of the movie one boy playing on the stairs (front+rear view but far in the background only). Maybe I missed some scenes?

The boys are not thin. Many scenes of the boys (in shorts) but I somehow don't like the movie. There are much better ones.

Rating 3-4 for the Lederhosen scenes, rating 4-5 for the movie. Alternate title "In allen Gassen wohnt das Glück". Sequel to Polizischt Wäckerli (which I also have to check).

Info 181: Update Raspoutine (2011)

raspoutine2011b

I now have seen a pic of an older boy in a uniform as pictured in this movie starring Gérard Depardieu..

Previously I only have seen a pic of a very young Alexei, about 4 yo in a sailor suit.

I still haven't seen this movie completely and can't say if there are more scenes of an older Alexei in sailor suit or similar.
