Goat cart at the White House


"The Harrison children enjoying a day on the south lawn on their goat-drawn cart, circa 1891."
Found at the White House Museum (see blog entry below). Perhaps some TYWKIWDBI visitor can tell me whether the outfits worn by the little girls in the photo were conventional attire for the end of the Gilded Age, or whether these are costumes of some sort...?

Note to self: explore goat carts as a topic for future blogging.
