    Favorite 1930's-40's Christmas decoration

    I probably should have just said vintage instead of 30's-40's. I myself collect Atomic age ornaments. Any Santa in a rocket ship, flying saucer, robot, ray gun ornaments I can find I grab.

    Favorite 1930's-40's Christmas decoration

    Now that Halloween has passed it's officially the start of the Holiday season. So what vintage Christmas decoration is your favorite. I'm still partial to Bubble lights and Spinner or Birdcage ornaments. Nothing makes a Christmas tree come to life like movement-

    Hunting Hitler on the History Channel

    The problem with people that laugh at conspiracy theories is they're not educated enough to realize how many turn out to be true.

    Gloomy Sunday 1999

    If you don't mind reading subtitles I couldn't think of a better movie to suggest. It a flawless recreation of Hungary at the beginning of WWII, a love affair between two men and one woman, a mystery all wrapped around the writing of the famous banned "suicide" song Gloomy Sunday. Just...

    Anyone know anything about this hatmaker Daquino?

    Just received another hat from D'Aquino. I don't really know any issues anyone has had but my experience has been all positive. I wanted a western fedora based on Pierce Brosnans in the netflix series The Son. I asked Luisa to make it in a medium grey with a 3" pencil curled brim. A 5" straight...

    Ask a question, get an answer

    Good to see this forum is still around and kicking :-) I was wondering what forum members have used for trimming hat brims? I've made a few little tools out of wood blocks with a razor attached but Im sure someone on here has come up with something that works really well, or maybe something...
