I recently saw again the 5th and last film of "The Sugar Creek Gang" Teacher Trouble (pictured). My most favourite bibs films after Honkytonk Man. Dragonfly (Kody Brown) has a purple hanky in his right back pocket. Bill has a red I think cap in his left pocket. I wonder if this is a "hidden code" like the gay Hanky code. Also funny, sensitive and allergic Dragonfly uses this as hanky to blow his nose and also as a scarf.
The purple or fuchsia color means in the hanky code spanking, the right pocket passive. Red on the left means fisting active. I don't own this novel and this is maybe a coincidence.
More important is maybe the bib pocket. (Another entry for that coming soon -> The Sun Comes Up). Also interesting other accessories and especially leather belts (often seen in the 80s).
The 1st pic showing Little Jim in light blue bibs (rather few scenes and only in this 5th film), then Poetry (dark blue baggy bibs), then Dragonfly and in the background the girl Circus (tight regular jeans and blond pigtails). A boy in the novels, also interesting.
The 2nd pic showing Bill and Dragonfly in the one-room schoolhouse at the end of the movie. Very good sitting scene. Note that the color of his bibs appear lighter inside. Backlit, in the shadow or wet, they appear much darker. So I'm still not sure if they're always the same pair. Maybe they have a similar pair if they got wet? He's wearing bibs nearly always, except for swimming and the revival.
I also noticed that Dragonfly's hair has different length in the same episode (also much longer in the making of). The green camouflage shirt doesn't fit in the 50s, but he also wears a green pullover. Green color fits perfectly to the blue bibs. Also a younger and older boy in bibs and men. Sorry, no women.
