Nice photo of a man blowing his nose into his handkerchief, as he stands under an umbrella.

Typing "zakdoek" into the search box also gives other handkerchief photos, including some showing women using handkerchiefs.

Edit: The original link in this post didn't seem to work later on. Try this instead:

http://www.spaarnestadphoto.nl/component/o...mid,60/lang,nl/

which should take you to the search page -- and then in the right-hand column, under "Zoek in de beeldbank", type

zakdoek parapluie

If that doesn't work, just go to

http://www.spaarnestadphoto.nl

and in the links row across the top of the page, click "Zoek" which takes you to the search page.

You can also switch the web page's language to English, but that is less fun, and also brings up fewer photos!

1938 magazine drawing of a woman with a cold, using a handkerchief. Very feminine.

(Scroll up to see the drawing.)

Obama's noseblow

Obama blowing his nose into a tissue - and with a yummy congested voice.

A good two-handed honk into a real handkerchief is what I had expected from a man with his charisma...

On "The Closer" episode named "Fate Line," the detectives have to break into a closed garage where a car has been running. What is remarkable is that practically all of them, both men and women, pull out handkerchiefs to protect themselves from the fumes. A couple of the handkerchiefs even look monogrammed. This takes place about halfway through the episode.

At the beginning of the episode, a male witness (late 20s?) also sneezes multiple times messily and is offered tissues by one of the detectives.

On the TV series "Bones," the episode called "Mayhem on a Cross," there is a scene towards the very end where Bones starts crying while talking about a painful childhood memory. Booth gives her his large white handkerchief, and she wipes at her face and nose, and then folds it up and stuffs it back into his front jacket pocket, over his heart. He then touches his pocket and in the process touches his hand to his heart. For various reasons within the context of the show, this is a very romantic scene between the two of them.

I haven't been able to find a good link to this specific scene or I would post it here. If anyone finds a clip and wants to post it on Savefile, that would be great.

On the 3rd season opening episode of Burn Notice, "Friends and Family," spy Michael Westen (actor Jeffrey Donovan) pretends to be a lawyer with a cold. No sneezing, but lots of coughing, nose-rubbing, and general manipulation of his large white handkerchief. All while wearing a suit. :-)

Russian woman with cold, blowing nose in handkerchief.

Just a quick one, near the start of the new film "Bruno" by Sacha Baron Cohen, there's a bit of nose blowing. Its caused by him crying however, nothing to do with sneezing or allergies.

How to fold 2 silk handkerchiefs together for a more colorful and varied look, in one's tuxedo pocket. Actually quite interesting.

Same discussion, for a single handkerchief -- not as interesting but who knows when you will need to know this for a wedding? :-)
