Main post with my old clip
This is my 2nd blog about feature films, TV series and documentaries with boys, girls, men and women in sailor suits, Lederhosen and other historical clothing of the 19th century and beyond. I collect informations, trailer videos, low-res images and personal comments/ratings. This blog was introduced in 2011. 2012-2020 on Wordpress. Now I'm back. Update will take a while.

New clip
I also have uploaded this 1996 clip with a very handsome blond Dutch boy, and another one in coveralls. Is this still a bowlcut?
I will upload some more rare vids the next days, most with bib overalls, but also others (I don't recall Lederhosen, maybe some with sailor suits, so I won't announce them all on this or my other blog. One should follow my channel.

"The Most Beautiful Boy in the World" is a documentary about Björn Andrésen (Morte a Venezia/Death in Venice, rating 7). I don't like that haircut and prefer haircuts like this.
Great late 80s series about a camping place. I have recently watched the DVDs. Unfortunately very few Lederhosen scenes.
I already had this 2011 post (rating 10), but had an update with larger pics on May 23, 2018. Handsome boy (Benjamin Zobrys, "Das Traumschiff") pics 1+2. There are some other, younger boys at the fair (DVD 2) some in sailor suits, at least one also in longer Lederhosen. But very briefly in from a distance.
I had one more pic, headshot of the teen girl in the white sailor dress (see main post), no need for a re-upload of her.
Unfortunatley rather few scenes of sailor suits/sailor dress and even fewer of Lederhosen but great plot/ 1920s setting/actors.

Update: I must have had a second update on June 10. With 2 similar pics of pics 1+2, front view pic 1 and full view of pic 2 showing the white stockings. Also 2 pics with at least 2 other boys from a distance (blue suits as well). At the fair but maybe in a later episode. But no need for more pics.
An announced, one more pic of this great series, rating 10. Pic is from episode 6.
There are so many different and great sailor suits and collars. I have chosen this one, nice side view, probably it's the same as pic 2 in the main entry with the rear view.

One very handsome blonde boy (Zane Gerson) with a bowlcut singing, best in s1e16 (see my other blog) and in episode It's almost Christmas (pic below). Also Western setting in some episodes I think including him wearing Cowboy hats. Also a darkhaired boy with a bowlcut. Off-topic but historical 80s fashion.
I found another great series with boys in shortalls (Baryard Fun) on my other blog. Both series rating 7.
For these Lederhosen rating ~2-3. For Zane rating 10. I considered making a blog about bowl cut movies. Maybe later and probably as a Wiki, like my School TV Wiki (link on my other blog).

-Comment: Many boys at least around 20, thereof at least around 10 in close-up scenes and everone in a different type and color of sailor suits. Many others in similar historical clothes. Directed by Luigi Comencini.
During research for my unknown Italian coming-of-age movie I found this mini series (6 episodes) on YouTube. Unfortunately half of them have been deleted. But still many boys in very interesting sailor suits. I have seen many movies featuring sailor suits but this is maybe the one with the most boys in different sailor suits. Some boys are handsome. Interesting sailor collars. Makes rating 10. I can't show all of them. There are white, light blue, medium blue, dark blue and other sailor collars. With or without stripes, 2, 3 or more stripes. Different styles of suits, collars and dickeys and also caps and straw hats.
Pic 1: note the boy on the right in a completetly white sailor collar without stripes on the right. There are also at least 2 others in white collar with stripes. The boy in the dark blue long suit is the same as on the last pic below. Short white collar flap on the rear with many thicker angled blue stripes. Matching stripes on the dickey.
Pic 2 showing a blue collar with a thicker stripe on the edge and 2 thinner stripes. Pic 3 showing a blue grey combination. Also another boy in an interesting suit and collar. Pic 4 is a white buttoned suit jacket and another rare light blue rectangled collar.
Famous novel "Dagli Appennini alle Ande" by Edmondo De Amicis. English title: Heart. There are around 20 more movies and series about this plot including animated series. I only remember the 1989 series starring Umberto Caglini but have to check the others.
An update with 2 more pics also showing the front of pic 1 and some hats

-Comment: Charly Huber as Hubert (1st pic and I think 2nd pic on the far left) in longer Lederhosen with much patina (H-style suspenders, showing front and back, also with a green traditional jacket, alltogether about 3 scenes), one other (unknown) boy in short and tight buckskin Lederhosen (also H-style suspenders and showing front and back, 2 short scenes) in ep 27, and some other kids in tight shorts in this episode (one on right to the Lederhosen boy on pic 2) and also some other kids in shiny shorts speedos and similar clothing at the camping site, but mostly far in the distance in other episodes. Men and I think 2 older teen boys in Lederhosen in the first episode (brief scenes and not very good, rating 3-4) and some older men in the middle of the series (band). Also a woman (and a toddler and I think a man) in bib overalls (soon on my other blog). And an older teen boy in tight jeans. Charly Huber also in good jeans in ep 28. Blond Rudi Derse (freckled thick nose) as 11 yo Boris in light blue pajamas (barefeet), a light yellow jogging suit and other good clothing of the late 80s.
I still have to check the last 6 episodes (a 23 minutes) but according to IMDb they only appear in this 2 episodes, but maybe there are also other or even better episodes (I will update this if necessary in a few days).
2-3 rather short but very good Lederhosen scenes (each), handsome actors and good plot (the series about the two old ladies (Northern Heidi Kabel and Bavarian Erni Singerl) managing a camping site and encountered many problems, mainly financal ones). Maybe some prefer the short Lederhosen, but I like the longer ones (a bit baggy/too big). Very rare with so much patina (almost smooth finish leather). Lederhosen also look strange next to the bright 80s clothes.
Some very famous actors (in other episodes) including Erni Singerl, Willy Millowitsch, his son Peter and daughter Mariele (she in bib overalls), Gerhart Lippert and Pit Krüger. Also some interesting historical things of the 80s/90s like old telephones, computers, TV sets, cars etc.
DVD:
I bought this DVD box for other reasons and was surprised of this perfect Lederhosen scenes.
DVD is PAL 4:3, RC 2. Image quality is very good even on big screens, stereo sound, no subtitles, no extras (yet). I think this series hadn't been aired since the first and only airing in 1990 but after the DVD release it is possible. However the DVD was even very cheap.
Rating 9-10 for Lederhosen. I hope for more scenes and close up scenes of shiny shorts or other interesting clothes. I found no clips on YouTube and few other infos.
Update 1: Boris also in ep. 30 and 32 (32 cycling, good scene), but no more Lederhosen scenes (except a man). 4 more episodes left.
Some better pics, now also on my shiny shorts blog, rating 6

This big cabinet card showing 2 freckled boys in sailor suits and the family. Taken in Mons, Wallonia in the 1890s. It's my earliest, most expensive and one of my favourite ones (so far).
The postcard sized cabinet card has hundreds of little scratches and a lot of round spots all over, also at the faces and it took me many hours to remove them. But it would be a lifetime job to remove them all. As it's a b&w pic I don't know the colors (of the sailor suits) but I saw a modern sailor suit (on the now deleted tumbl blog starting with sco) which looks similar and I don't assume pink sailor suits for boys. The fabric looks satin like and thin (a summer suit?) No external typical sailor collar but attached to the blouse. Many stripes. I like how they touch each other's shoulders/collars.
Interesting family and clothes, family is quite small for these times and the dad rather old (or the beard made it). The dad was most likely dominant, but the left boy also looks dominant over his thinner brother. The hairstyle looks very modern and I assume that they were rich. Not 100% sure about the date, maybe 1890s, maybe even earlier or 1900s. The backside of the card also has a good styled studio design, but this is nothing uncommon. Photographer R. Josz-Dongrie, 8 Rue Rogier (for those who might search for that).
