Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Pic from ebay, design by Bing & Grondahl (B&G). There's also a boy in a sailor suit.
Next post in January.
List of Christmas movies and series with overalls (also one episode of The Pretender, see previous post)
https://biboverallsfilms.blogspot.com/2017/12/list-59-christmas-movies-with-overalls.html
I think rather few good scenes, young girl, so rating ~3-4 only.
I did an Ubuntu upgrade and in the new Firefox 108 (snap package), TLS 1.1 is again disabled by default. I think it still can be manually enabled, but it's not recommended for longer use. And other browsers might not work at all.
There are still the same issues with my School TV wiki on wiki-site (see blogroll), like an old certificate and no SSL. But even when accepting the risks, all wikis can't be accessed at all. Maybe it's also completely down now (404 error). Same for the main site active.co.il (only galcomm works). Registered in 2006, I think it used a 2010 wiki software and was never updated. There were very few active wikis, I think less than 5 and some tests.
In case, something happened to this blog, I considered transferring it to a wiki, but I still haven't found better blogs or wiki. There's also wix.com, but I think the domain is only free in the 1st year. A forum or pinterest would be another options. A complete, free site with import of all pics is obviously impossible. I haven't searched for new sites. But probably I would have to switch to a text-only site or list then (maybe on editthis.info or doowikis). And try to announce it somewhere (overalls or movie site). Let's hope, that there will be no need for that.
First post and wiki comparison (some more details on my other blog)
https://biboverallsfilms.blogspot.com/2021/06/info-issues-with-my-wiki-comparison.html
I recently bought 2 books. First: De rode zwaan (movie rating 10). I have read most of it, but no mentioning of bibs, yet. I think I have read the book before and bought it twice by mistake. Quite good fantasy book (grandfather/grandson relation and girl friend, but the movie is obviously better.
I also bought the novel Christy (series rating 7, there are also 3 movies, rating 3, 4 and 5). The German translation has 448 pages and I just have read the beginning. A Christian novel and romance about a 19 yo female teacher set in 1912. There are 8 mentionings of bibs on Google Books (mainly men). One scene was very interesting: "He seemed a reincarnation of what Tom Sawyer have looked like: overalls... bare feet, tousled hair, lots of freckles, two front teeth missing. It was his too-straight face that tipped me off."
There are also other, thinner books, including a 15 part book series and maybe sequels and also abridged books.
Female teachers are probably better and more interesting than strict male teachers (at least in those days). Female teachers were also shown in The Waltons and Little House on the Prairie (see those posts).
I have some more good pics, better do a blog search (Christy).
I still haven't finished "Where the Red Fern Grows". And I also have to read many digital books including all of The Sugar Creek Gang. But I prefer reading physical books.

Update: The scene in Christy is on page 80, the first day at school. The boy is called Creed Josiah Allen and has a racoon under his desk which escaped. In German overalls is translated to "Overall" (although it would mean coveralls). And the missing teeth are not mentioned. Not much of interest in that scene. Most boys are naughty. But I'm still reading.
Update 2: Although I have only found that one scene online, I found another scene on page 115. 12 yo Issak , the oldest son (of another family) wore as usual worn and patched overalls, very worn shirt and sturdy shoes which are ways too big. Not sure how this written in English.
Another episode, which has been aired 2 days ago. 19 yo short haired Luisa (full name is shown) and a young man in dark grey bibs. Bib at low position, hips are free.
2014 episode Feinwerkmechaniker/-in. But fewer scenes. And walking rear view. Aka Ausbildungsberufe im Porträt: ich mach's!.
Episodes are available on the br mediathek (and not the daserste mediathek (ARD alpha), except for the live stream which can be rewinded some few hours after broadcast on mondays).
There are obviously many other episodes with young males and females in working bibs, I think also dark blue and maybe dark green ones. The light grey ones are my favourites, yet.
Rating ~3 for this one, main entry currently rating 5
https://biboverallsfilms.blogspot.com/2022/12/ich-machs-berufe-im-portrat.html
And another rating 4 re-upload. A boy in bibs with a wide, beige belt. Overlapping straps, rare, maybe non-jeans fabric.
I now found the full Czech movie (Jakub (1976)) on YouTube and have briefly checked it. Pic 1 (best scenes) is at 42 minutes. Also a girl in dark blue non-jeans skirtalls/dress and another one in long yellow bibs at ~1h08 and (partial front) at school at 59. Rather few scenes of the boy mainly in the 2nd half. Simple straps. I don't like the 70s. Rating 4 was correct.
Main entry

Also at least a very young boy in shortalls and a man in bibs or similar on stage in clip Johnny and the Sprites. And young men as The Imagination Movers in medium blue coveralls. But probably much more in the background.
According IMDb 2006-2009 and only 5 episodes, but in fact it was aired since 1997. Also showing Andy Lawrence and other stars (not in bibs).
First, I found pic 2 and considered rating 3, but I have to give at least rating 4. I don't know all episodes.
Very good but very brief. So rating ~5-6 for this.
Main entry, f/m rating up to 6
https://biboverallsfilms.blogspot.com/2016/01/picket-fences.html
The girl also lying on grass at least on her back.
I haven't seen the full movie yet. Pic from the trailer. I assume many scenes, but she also wore other clothes including a pink skirt.
Rating ~4 for now. I prefer blue bibs. Movie itself (plot probably touching) maybe a bit higher.
Correct title: Drugelio širdis. English title: A Butterfly's Heart. I haven't found a DVD, yet.

-Comment: Some older teens f/m and young people in different bibs. Both pics from ep Technische/-r Modellbauer/-in - Karosserie und Produktion. Pic 1 showing 21 yo Jenniffer (her full name is mentioned). Light grey bibs (car company Audi) at ~3-4 minutes. Rather few scenes but also an interview. Pic 2 an unknown teen boy in dark grey bibs with green parts together with an 18 yo boy at the end.
One episode earlier showing young males in blue working bibs in ep Fachkraft für Rohr-, Kanal- und Industrieservice (but not as good). Probably more in other episodes.
Has just been aired (2 episodes each Monday morning on ARD alpha, often one mainly for boys and one for girls). Some settings are interesting (most set in Bavaria). Some jobs are weird. Some episodes are many years old. I don't know all episodes. Available on the br mediathek.

19 yo short haired Luisa and young man in dark grey bibs in 2014 ep. Feinwerkmechaniker/in, rating 3

I have some posts about virtual reality (and other topics like smells) and I recently bought a View-Master and some reels. There are many reel sets, especially of TV series of the 70s and 80s. You have 7 stereo slide pairs per reel and almost all series have 3 reels.
I currently only know The Waltons and Kidsongs showing bibs. I think different episodes each. I don't have either of them (as rare outside the US). The Waltons ("The Separation") has this scene (I have a post here) and Kidsongs has Matthew Bartilson sitting on a tree in Country-Sing-Along (song: Country Kid. I used to have that pic here). There's also reels of Tom Sawyer (1973) and another set showing Huck Finn (same movie). I think few scenes as well.
The 3-D effects are very good, but 1st there are very few good bibs scenes and 2nd actors with bibs are often in the background, so no good 3D effect of the overalls themselves.
There was a digital View-Master for Iphones, but they stopped that service and I don't know what pics they had.
It's possible to make own reels. But you need people wearing bibs.
There are also 3D movies/BD. I own some, but I think no notable movies. I only remember a very brief scene of The Mortician (2011), boy.

Another rating 4 re-upload. 12 or 13 yo Donald O'Conner in faked, patched costume bibs with no rear part and faked shirt. I previously also had a rear view, but no need for re-uploading that (there's a white upper part and not even straps).

Some more scenes of girls. Pic 1 a black girl dancing on stage in s3e22 and a girl walking in s3e20. Both scenes are short. In s3e20 there's also Kimberly in a dark green (almost black) bibs-like dress near the end.
I also found a young black girl sitting in white bibs in s4e4 (coming later).
Main entry f/m rating 6

Green haired Lewin Lloyd ~13 yo in dark brown bibs with beige bib pocket. Several scenes including sitting. But with an open jacket. Has been aired yesterday. 2020 episode Orphan 55.
Considered on YouTube as worst episode ever. The monsters (Dregs) aren't that bad. I don't like the female Doctor and prefer David Tennant. Season 4 has been aired before that. There were some few boys before (mainly in historical episodes) but this is the first, I noticed in bibs.
Handsome boy but due to the jacket rather few good scenes. So rating ~4-5.
Main entry (lady) rating 4

Rating ~4-5 for now.
B&W drama by George Woodard
-Year: 2023
-Year in film: 1940s
-Country: USA
-Who in bibs: Calvin ~12, teen girl ~15 ?
-Available on DVD: no
-I own: no
-Bib occurrence: medium+ ?
-Rating: 6/10
-Rating: ******
-Comment: An interesting b&w movie to be released (in theaters) probably in February 2023 (no entry on IMDb yet). Filmed and/or set in Vermont. Similar movie like The Summer of Water Hacks (f/m rating 8), same director. His son also starred in The Summer of Water Hacks. That movie now should be released on DVD (announced in ~2020, but still isn't).
There are some pics on the companies website (hangingmudflapproductions), showing the boy (distance) and the teen girl (milking and other sitting scene). I have seen some extracts (but with grown-ups only). The movie is also about the war but I still assume many good farm scenes.
So needs to be rechecked later. (Soon post to not forget it).
Rating ~6-7 for now.
