A bit knackered but the price might stay low. This seller has had some good stuff recently and the prices seem to stay low:
I really like this. It's been on and off ebay for ages now without anyone buying it. I would have grabbed it if it was my size.

Lapel shape and buttons suggest German to me.

I am a great fan of the works of the British novelist Alexander Baron who did most of his best work from the late forties to the 1960s. He started out writing war novels, based around his own experiences, then moved on to 'London' novels. His novel 'The Human Kind' was made into the film 'The...
I have been 'rationalising' my wardrobe and now I have a number of caps for sale. These are the ones that don't get worn very often and might as well find a new home.
1) Eight piece grey herringbone tweed cap by 'Bates'. Size 61. This hasn't had much wear:
£15 (plus postage)
2)...
I have these two silk ties made by 'Old Town' for sale:
£8 each (plus postage) to anyone who is interested.
('Old Town' sells them for £35.)
Send me a PM please.
Following some vigorous debate over on the 'Show Us Your Ties' thread (which seemed to show up the Atlantic divide between European and American tie fans) I decided to open a thread where people with spare ties can offer them as swaps.
It's simple: post photos of what you have and examples of...

I couldn't find a thread dedicated simply to photographs of, and adverts for, vintage raincoats, trenchcoats and mackintoshes etc. So I thought I would start one.
No modern coats or reproductions please.
(N.B. I know there will be some cross over with what are technically lightweight...
Has anyone else seen this and got any thoughts about the costumes?
Many of the outfits appear to be vintage. The main character's suit also looks like it might be an original period suit. However, it seems that all the main characters (apart from the older men) appear to be wearing the same...

I don't usually post dinner jackets on this thread since there are so many of them out there. But this is earlier than most of...
This might be a silly question, but I can no longer see how to search for vintage clothing by decade on Ebay in the UK?
Is this facility hidden somewhere now? Or am I being daft?
I have recently posted many photographs from the Library of Congress collections, mainly showing men's fashions. So I thought I would add some of the women's fashions:
These all come from the U.S. Farm Security Administration/Office of War Information Black & White Photographs
