This is my personal blog / database about Bib overalls in feature films and TV series. It's my first blog. I collect informations, trailer videos, low-res images and personal comments/ratings. This blog was created in 2011. From 2012-2020 on Wordpress.com and now I'm back. Many links are wrong but exist (blog search).
Suggested for the 2nd time. Thanks for the link.
9 yo but even much younger looking Danny Cooksey in faded blue bibs, hands in pockets. I already had him in s7e22 (rating 4).
He's very small. So rather rating 2-3.

It's getting harder and harder to find good books. I found this by coincidence/hard research. The 1881 text itself is in the Public Domain and doesn't seem to have mentionings of overalls. Illustrations of (later) issues are probably still copyrighted.
There are many different editions and several illustrators. Some illustrations showing overalls of boys and some are very interesting like illustrator William Sharp (1992 ?) and Claudine Nankivel (1963). Author Harriett Lothrop aka Margaret Sidney.
Later I've learned that this is a book series and there are even late 30s movies starring Tommy Bond ("Hideaway (1937)", Spanky (1937) and others.
I have to recheck the other novels and movies. I have very briefly checked the movies and "only" found a little girl in long bibs in "Out West with the Peppers" (entry soon). Backside simple suspenders only.
