According to Miss Manners, handkerchiefs for gentlemen really SHOULD be monogrammed with 2, preferably 3, initials.

The only possible conclusions are that Jeeves let personal preference interfere with propriety, he made a fashion faux pas, or really, REALLY doesn't want any young ladies to have an excuse to see Bertie or think fondly on him more often that absolutely necessary.

LOL! I never thought of that! I suppose though, it was a little less unmanly at that time, considering how the rich and upperclass men used to dress not very long beforehand. They outshone some of today's women in their colourful splendour. ;)

Very true X D

I still find it utterly adorable that they wore strawberry-prettified hankies though <3
