    How can you tell a bow ties era?

    The shape, width, material and labeling are generally good indicators. The brands like Wembly, Cardinal, Adjust-o-Tie, Botany, to name a few - produced quite a few bow ties in the Golden Age...and also during the declining years. A good, moderate width usually made in silk, rayon, or fine...

    The wife and I used to go out to the Lake Lure Inn for Saturday night dancing to "Doc Deviney's Band" back when we were courting in the 80's - "Dirty Dancing" and the decline of the "Greatest Generation" kind of did in those dances, though....

    Hey Big Hoss! There is only one entrance to the cemetery that is ever open - get on I-240W(coming from your direction it'd be off I-40W at exit 53B - or 53A - whichever goes toward Asheville). As you pass thru the Beaucatcher Cut and get to the Western edge of town - past the Civic Center...

    A cool, damp Easter morning in Asheville, NC. Took a brief stroll in historic Riverside Cemetery (resting place of Thomas Wolfe and O. Henry) after Easter lunch. Probably the last hoorah this year for the heavy tweeds - and not a long longer left for felt hats this spring! Thornproof tweed...

    Interesting modern bespoke jacket by Jonathan Smith of Bespoke Carolina - I love the pattern matching and the width of the lapels - these have a buttonhole in each lapel - seems I have seen this on a couple of vintage jackets. Not sure what purpose the right hand one would serve, but it is...

    Big Man, I know that you, I and about everyone on this forum dislike the "gangster" references, but your stance and expression honestly make you look like you are fixing to "take someone for a ride" - or that you are investigating something pretty serious - equally convincing as either an old...

    I hate to part with these country brogues, but I am seriously trying to streamline my wardrobe, and hope to be posting several more good items this week.

    Unusual Cole-Haan Leather Suspenders

    Yes, if a man took a caliper to keep the distance uniform and a good punch that made a neat, small hole, it could be done. If they don't sell here by tomorrow, off to EvilBay!!

    Very Nice Men's Dress Gloves - Men's Size Small

    Here is one of the nicest pair of vintage men's gloves I have ever encountered - guessing 1940's manufacture - 50's at the latest. These appear to have been worn extremely little, if at all. The inside surface of the left forefinger has 4 tiny marks about the size of pencil points and that is...

    Unusual Cole-Haan Leather Suspenders

    Here is a super nice pair of leather suspenders from Cole-Haan. I believe these are actually reversible - they were showing the darker side when I bought them - just rebuckled the other way as I prefer the tan color rather than the almost black of the other side. They are nicely broken in - no...
