Issue Xxx, Fall, 2016 NEWSLETTER Issue XXX Fall, 2016 Hats off to Pittstown! By Nancy Grilli Nancy Grilli, a Victorian clothing enthusiast, as well as a trustee of the Pittstown Historical Society (PHS) and member of the PHS Exhibit Committee, helped mount an exhibit last spring entitled “Hats off to Pittstown”. In the article below, Grilli offers excerpts from that exhibit, as well as additional comments on the photos of Pittstown folk decked out in hats. According to Susan Langley, hat researcher and author, hats were often a reflection of not only the mood of its wearer but also the spirit of its time. While hats sometimes had a function, they were the crowning glory or grand finale of an outfit. Hat styles were often influenced by famous people who were greatly admired. Their hats were widely copied to be “in style” or fashionable. This was evident not only in the fashion world of the city of Paris, but as you can see, even in the small rural community of Pittstown, NY! (Source: Landley, Susan.

A Boater (also straw Boater, Basher, Skimmer, Cady, Katie, Canotier, Somer, Sennit hat) is a kind of men’s formal summer hat. It is normally made of stiff sennit straw and has a stiff flat crown and brim, typically with a solid or striped grosgrain ribbon around the crown. Boaters were popular as casual summer headgear in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, especially for boating or sailing. The Boater hat retained its popularity far into the 20th century. Boaters were also worn by women, who often kept it in place with hatpins. NEWSBOY CAP: The men to the left have chosen to wear Newsboy Caps, as they prepare to go motoring through Pittstown. The Newsboy Cap or Newsy Cap is a casual wear cap similar in style to the flat cap. Sometimes also referred to as the: Baker Boy, Bandit Cap, Apple Cap, Eight Piece Cap, Eight Panel, Cabbie, Jay Gatsby, Fisherman’s Cap, Pageboy, Applejack Hat, Lundberg Stetson, and the Poor Boy Cap. The style was popular in Europe and North America in the late 19th and early 20th centuries among both boys and men. As the name suggests, it is now associated with newspaper boys.

Women and children of all ages wore the ever popular and functional bonnet throughout the 1700s into the early 1900s. The bonnet was at its height of fashion during the mid Victorian era. Fancy bonnets of the 1850s and 1860s were often trimmed with silk tulle, feather plumes, bobbin lace, silk bows and artificial flowers. All bonnets were tied beneath the chin with broad ribbons and had a curtain hanging from the back. A variety of bonnet styles were worn by frontier women, fashionable ladies and hardworking farm girls. Each style had a practical purpose as well as being a fashion statement. Sherman collection The older woman on the left is wearing a white “morning” cap, a type of hat covering for indoor wear during the day in the mid Victorian period. The caps were often trimmed with lace and insertions of embroidery. Similar style night caps were also worn by older women up to the 1880s.

They are great examples of hats being the crowning glory of an outfit! Sherman collection, undated Ladies above decked out in fashionable hats show off their handsome summer millinery with large bows, ribbons and flowers. Feather trimmings were all designed to add to the height of these hats. Hats continued to grow larger as this decade progressed. Feathers of all kinds were the favored trim and were used extensively. Plumage laws were passed to protect certain endangered species of birds. Ostriches were being raised on farms, and their plumes were widely available. The long “weeping willow” plume was a favorite along with trims of flowers, bows, and fruit. As hairstyles became fuller at the sides, hats developed wider crowns. Large brims balanced the new narrower dresses that were being worn during this time.

The Bowler hat, also known as a Bob Hat, Derby (US) or Bombin, is a hard felt hat with a rounded crown originally created in 1849 for the British soldier and politician, Edward Coke, the younger brother of the 2nd Earl of Leicester. The Bowler hat was popular with the working class during the Victorian era and later on with the middle and upper classes in the United Kingdom and the eastern United States.

Pittstown’s Farmsteads Honored in NYS Preservation Plan The “New York State Historic Preservation Plan 2015-2020” highlights the work the Pittstown Historical Society has done documenting its historic farmsteads. The Plan, which was published by the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation, states “The Historic Farmsteads of Pittstown State and National Registers Multiple Property Documentation Project has helped to document historic farmsteads in rural Rensselaer County, including agricultural buildings and working landscapes. The project, which was supported by the Preservation League of New York State, the New York State Council on the Arts, the Hudson River Valley Greenway, the Pittstown Historical Society, The Persistence Foundation and the Rensselaer County Legislature, has resulted in the listing of a group of Pittstown farmsteads on the State and National Registers.” Backus farmstead, Johnsonville, Rd, 2011 Page 5 PPPIITTSTOWNTTSTOWN HIISTORICALSTORICAL SOOCIETYCIETY NEEWSLETTERWSLETTER Issue XXX Fall, 2016 Nellie Abbott and her Diaries By Betsy Tromans Betsy Tromans recently transcribed Nellie Abbott’s diaries (1937–1970). Below, she offers her insights about them. There are seven diaries starting in 1937 and ending in 1970. Some years have few entries; 1959 has only two days filled in; 1947 and 1970, only 3 days. I found out that Nellie was 56 when the diaries began in 1937 and 89 when they ended in 1970.

  • Enregisterment in Historical Contexts
    0 Enregisterment in Historical Contexts: A Framework Paul Stephen Cooper A thesis submitted to the University of Sheffield for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of English Literature, Language and Linguistics February 2013 1 ABSTRACT In this thesis I discuss how the phenomena of indexicality and enregisterment (Silverstein 2003; Agha 2003) can be observed and studied in historical contexts via the use of historical textual data. I present a framework for the study of historical enregisterment which compares data from corpora of both nineteenth-century and modern Yorkshire dialect material, and the results of an online survey of current speakers so as to ascertain the validity of the corpus data and to use ‘the present to explain the past’ (Labov 1977:226). This framework allows for the identification of enregistered repertoires of Yorkshire dialect in both the twenty-first and nineteenth centuries. This is achieved by combining elicited metapragmatic judgements and examples of dialect features from the online survey with quantitative frequency analysis of linguistic features from Yorkshire dialect literature and literary dialect (Shorrocks 1996) and qualitative metapragmatic discourse (Johnstone et al 2006) from sources such as dialect dictionaries, dialect grammars, travel writing, and glossaries. I suggest that processes of enregisterment may operate along a continuum and that linguistic features may become ‘deregistered’ as representative of a particular variety; I also suggest that features may become ‘deregistered’ to the point of becoming ‘fossil forms’, which is more closely related to Labov’s (1972) definition of the ultimate fate of a linguistic stereotype. I address the following research questions: 1.

A Soldier and His Many Hats: The volutE ion of American Military Headgear Abstract Military headgear is a fascinating topic. It exists on a spectrum from the gaudy to the protective, but how did headgear evolve with the military? Interestingly, changes from the decorative to the practical can be examined through this blog’s favorite topic, the 1800s and the American Civil War. By tracing key changes in American military headgear in the 1800s, ideas about the nature of war, as well as how the United States was distancing itself from Europe, become clear.

  • Letter Carriers' Uniform: Hats, Introduction
    Letter Carriers’ Uniform: Hats, Introduction In 1868 the Postmaster General listed a cap as the letter carrier’s uniform headgear. It was to be made of the same material as the coat, bound round with a black cloth band 1 1/2 inches wide, and have small buttons at the sides. In 1873, panama hats were authorized for summer. In 1887, numbered badges were added to the carriers' headwear, and helmets were approved for use. Helmets were short-brimmed with a tall crown, similar to British bobby helmets. In 1893, the more general straw hat replaced the panama hat as allowable summer headgear. By 1901, a western-style hat appeared, with a stiff crown and wide brim. Though never described in the Postal Laws and Regulations, photographs indicate this cowboy-style hat was standard wear at some Post Offices. From 1902 through 1948, postal regulations listed the hat, cap or helmet as acceptable carrier headwear. Uniform manufacturers advertised many variations in headgear style. The bobby-style helmet was last advertised in The Postal Record in 1907; in 1949, the safari-style helmet ws first pictured. Although carriers at each Post Office were to dress uniformly, photographs indicate that this was not always enforced. In 1955, only the helmet and cap were listed as acceptable headgear. The helmet was specified for summer; it was made of molded fiber in a blue-gray cadet shade and had a maroon chinstrap. The cap was a blue-gray eight-point style cap with braid the same color as the cap and a maroon chin strap.

  • Fun Fashions for Fellas by Pegge Blinco
    Fun Fashions for Fellas By Pegge Blinco With the hope of urging our gentlemen into fashions of our era, I offer suggestions for doable clothing – off the rack – simple, easy and uncomplicated. One of the best items a fella should have in his closet should be a light, putty-colored Docker pant or light colored washable linen slack. Add a white or pin-striped long sleeve shirt, a four-in-hand tie or bow tie – or no tie, suspenders or belt. For footwear, saddle shoes, two-toned wing tips or cap toes, light colored canvas shoes with rubber soles or buckskins … but NEVER athletic shoes!! A driving cap or straw boater completes the outfit. When the weather got warm, sleeves were rolled to and above the elbows, as short sleeves did not exist on men’s shirts until late 1931. To kick this up a notch, use the same light slacks and shirt, unroll the sleeves, add a blazer, preferably dark colored, single or double breasted, a bow tie, or four-in-hand tie – length was short – 45”, same shoes, straw boater or Panama hat, and he’s suitably dressed for lunch or afternoon party. 2006-03.doc Page 1 Revised 2/23/06 We are all familiar with the sports attire of knickers or plus fours, generally used for golfing, hiking and/or motoring. The home seamstress can create a pair by cutting 13-14” off wide trouser pants. This will allow for enough blouse to be 4” below the knee when finished.
