    1927 British Menswear IN COLOR

    Indeed, excellent resource, and very beautiful, nonetheless.

    Oh, it isn't a big debate. Yes, there was color. Excellent point, but that catalog is not exactly for the equivalent of K-Mart.

    German & Austrian Hutmachers

    I must defer. My example was extreme, but I thought I saw and read articles about loden/tracht/landhaus elements in the cities. But, it has been a couple years since I was in Berlin, and we prefer Austria, and areas like Bad Aussee, where all you SEE is Trachten.

    What are you called?

    Snappy dresser, sharpest guy in town, or just "Griffer" for short. (Wow, that sounds arrogant. Not intended. I just wear a lot of suits and hats, versus my circle of friends. My madras shorts and guayaberas with flip-flops blows that up) BTW, not strictly vintage, I mix in elements from...

    German & Austrian Hutmachers

    BTW, not sure if it has been been mentioned, but Trachten is experiencing a resurgence in high end German/Austrian fashion under the guise of Landhausmode. Think of it as the Deutsche equivalent of the Polo/Lauren Town & Country style- riding tack in Manhattan, embroidered silk dirndls in...

    Going to an Irish Bar

    If it's a real Irish Bar, don't order a "Black & Tan". For the Irish, that phrase refers to the Royal Irish Constabulary Reserve Force deployed in the 20s against the IRA, and more recently refers to any British soldier. Order Black & Tans in Brtish pubs.

    Lucky Tiger Discontinued my Hair Tonic!

    Haven't posted here for a while, but I need a recommendation for a hair tonic. I use Lay Rite or Murray's for a heavier setting, but my daily go-to was a light weight hair tonic by Lucky Tiger. I know it as the 'purple one'. I can't find the name of it. I might have been 3 Roses, but it...

    Show Us Your Purchases!

    We just bought a 1920's Art & Crafts transitional style home. All original, except for a passable modernization to the kitchen and modern finshed attic. All the original bathroom fixtures are intact as well. The toilet is date stamped 1929. Does this go in here?

    would you live back in time?

    I don't think it would be attractive. My equivalent social station then would not afford me nearly the luxuries I have now. As much as I like the idea of being a time tourist or having a window view, I am positive I wouldn't want to live in the past. /alternative past? //well, steam...

    You know that summer really IS over when...

    Summer is over when the darn kids go back to school and stop driving their Daddy's sportscars like race cars! Gal-danged kids! And when I get stuck behind school buses on my way tot the catch the train.
