1934, S40, H1: Play suit with matching hat. Donated by Barbara Hansen.
Scope and Contents
"This play suit was worn to the community picnic on the banks of the Sheyenne River in the summer of 1934. According to the snapshot, I got very dirty. According to the baby book, I embarrassed my mother and amused the menfolk with my command of barnyard English--learned of course, by hanging around the barns, And egged on, no doubt, by three teen aged brothers who thought it funny to teach the baby naughty words. What I remember about this picnic was losing my mother. (My brother found her). The garment was too big, so it probably was worn again the next year."
