EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Stretched Out Tale of a New Pair of Braces: A Humorous Historical Mishap This charming photograph, taken in the early 20th century, captures the humorous struggle of a man as he attempts to wear his new braces for the first time. Dressed in a smart suit and shirt, the man exudes a sense of pride and excitement as he reaches for the elastic bands, ready to secure them around his waist. However, as he stretches the braces taut, his expression quickly turns to one of frustration and disbelief. Despite his best efforts, the braces refuse to cooperate, refusing to stretch far enough to reach the buttons on his trousers. With a determined look on his face, the man leans forward, pulling and tugging at the elastic bands, attempting to make them fit. But as the struggle continues, his efforts become increasingly futile, and he eventually lands on his bottom with the unruly braces still undone. The image is a testament to the challenges of dressing oneself in the fashionable attire of the time, and the importance of finding the right fit. The man's predicament is a common one, and his expression of exasperation is sure to elicit a chuckle from modern viewers. This photograph is a delightful glimpse into the past, offering a lighthearted and amusing look at the trials and tribulations of men's fashion and the importance of a good fit. The photograph is part of the extensive collection of historical images available from Mary Evans Prints Online, and is a reminder of the rich and varied history of fashion and the human experience. Whether you're a historian, a fashion enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates a good laugh, this image is sure to provide hours of enjoyment and fascination.
