And nobody gave it a second thought... unlike today when you would be quickly surrounded by a SWAT team in full armament.

[QUOTE=Dean Romig;213480]Researcher (Dave Noreen) can probably answer your questions about his picture.....

Dave will probably tell you that it was normal attire for the time. His uncle and Dad if I'm not mistaken.

Looks like a couple of city slickers to me. :)

Gerald,The picture you posted of the gentlemen reminded me of a picture of an English engraver on my engravers forum sitting in a suit,tie and a white apron while engraving,I made a comment about it and two gents from across the pond came back and said that the way all tradesmen dress in the UK.Maybe these gentlemen were from the UK or Europe. J.J.

My Dad shot pheasants in a white Arrow shirt buttoned to the neck and a necktie. In advanced age, he softened up a bit and wore colored shirts when hunting.

Sounds like gentleman to me.

This is my grandfather probably in the 1920s. Dressed for the field but ya gotta love the tie.

glad we have the decesion to wear a tie or not these days..but your granpa looks good in attire i really like the boots...charlie

I've been known to wear a tie out shooting.

I don't know about the tie, but I've seen him wear out a marsh full of mallards
