    What art is in your home?

    I actually don't have much wall art, our walls are covered with windows, small shelves and tall furniture. I have 3 framed pictures, 2 movie posters and one art poster. All repros. I couldn't get good photos but I did find some pics online of them: And a huge framed 3 foot by 2...

    vintage letterman jackets and collegiate sweaters

    Hopefully this isn't too much of a thread hijack... I have my father's letter jacket (Thayer Missouri High School, 1943) and it's in great shape, but there are a few places where the wool has gotten thin. It fits perfectly but I'm afraid to wear it because I don't want those thin spots to...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    The Horn Blows at Midnight (1945) Just watched "The Horn Blows at Midnight" again. I absolutely love it! It's funny and has some great one-liners, and I really do like Jack Benny in almost any film role. I know Jack Benny made jokes about this film for decades afterwards, but it's not that...

    Tips for restoring a radio

    Zaika, that's a lovely radio. I particularly like the tuner and the eye. Also Hawkcigar, I wanted to thank you for the link to antiqueradios.com -- I have a 1946 Philco which just needs some tubes replaced to work again, and that looks like the perfect forum to ask about it.
