Abstract

AbstractThis article is based on an address given at the Costume Society's 1973 Symposium, and does not purport to be more than a sketchy outline of a subject to which the costume historian has not, as far as I know, given very much attention. In 1939 the Rev. Wallace Clare, F.R.S.A. published a short work, illustrated by drawings of some of the ancient school uniforms for boys. I am indebted to this work for some of my information.
