    Have we digressed too far from the golden era?

    The original concept of this forum, I believe, was to post things related to the "Golden Era." I see a lot of posts these days that have nothing to do with it. Thoughts? Cheers to all!

    Topcoat Conversions?

    I have a single-breasted charcoal grey overcoat that falls to halfway between my knees and ankles. I am thinking of having this converted to a top coat to end just above my knees. Any thoughts, advice, examples that others have done? Cheers, Harry.

    Great War Thread?

    I know it's a little before the Golden Era, but I am interested in starting a Great War thread. We do have precedents for periods earlier than the Golden Era, for example, Campaign Hats. Comments? Regards, Harry.
