Books on Fashion
Though you may not know it by looking at me these days, once upon a time I was a tad more interested in my appearance and sartorial taste. I used to peruse magazines such as GQ and even read up on style in books. To that end I purchased a few books to try and improve my image and learn all there...- HanauMan

Levi's leather jacket
I saw this battered old Levi's jacket recently and bought it more out of nostalgia than anything else. It had started off as a 'bomber' jacket and originally had a zip in liner and detachable 'fur' collar, both now missing. I'm guessing that it is late 1980s - early 1990s vintage. I was in my...- HanauMan

I cannot recall how much I paid for it back in 1992 but it was somewhat more than they sell on ebay nowadays. I bought it brand new via mail order. It is marked size 42R. The jacket isn't as trim as...- HanauMan

Vintage Steamer trunk
I would like to show you my vintage steamer / footlocker trunk. It was made in West Germany and dates from the late 1950s / early 1960s I would guess. This trunk was bought by my father in Thailand in 1967. He was there as a US Army sergeant helping to build a road in Thailand though I don't...- HanauMan

Vintage Pan Am flight bag
For my first post here on the forum I would like to show you my vintage flight bag. It isn't exactly from the golden Age but rather from the late 1960s. It comes from a time when flying by air was still an adventure and before air travelling became the mass market it is today. 1 by HanauMan...- HanauMan
