    Do You Listen to "40s on 4" on Sirius/XM?

    One of my favourite channels is 40's on 4, and I think the "megaphone guy" who does the stings is cool. I still haven't got a gangster nickname.

    What's something modern you won't miss when it becomes obsolete?

    I won't miss tattoos and piercing, or that silly fad of wearing baseball caps backwards.

    Have you flown in a vintage aeroplane?

    The first plane that I flew in as a kid was a Norseman on floats. It wasn't vintage then, but it is now.

    Vintage televisions, anyone? Post pics here!

    I have a TV from the early 1960s. It's really a fine piece of furniture which I use to place trinkets and photos on top. I've been thinking that it would be cool to take out the guts and put a flat screen TV where the cathode tube would have been.

    Golden Age of Hollywood - great site

    Yes I am. I love it when he gets all blustery and argumentative with Fibber, and practically explodes. A great Fibber McGee and Molly site: http://www.compusmart.ab.ca/agirard/fibber/79.htm

    Hat ad from 1934

    I scanned this from a Chicago Daily News 1934 Worlds Fair souvenir section. The hat in 1934 was going for $5. How much would that be in today's dollars?

    I think you'll like this!

    They're famous for "Who's on first?" but I think an even funnier routine was the Susquehana Hat Company sketch - - appropriate for this forum, of course.

    Vintage Magazines - some cover scans

    Hello all. This is my first post. I have a large collection of vintage magazines from the 1920s, 30s and 40s. A few days ago I scanned the covers of some Liberty Magazines and want to share them with you. I scan in two segments then stitch them together to create a single image.
