The Vinyl Revival
You can't clean your stash on a CD case, man... You know, I grew up in the LP era and still have a few hundred albums from the old days. But as an earlier poster said, to make vinyl sound good you need to expend a lot of effort and $$$ on gear and knowledge. Most CD's are quite good and I... -
If I had to pick one girl from the golden era
I always liked June Allyson. More for her voice and on-screen personality than pure looks. And, of course, let's not forget Mary Wickes...- CSG

What do you use to shave?
I'm a fan of traditional double edge razors and use a few different vintage and modern DE razors. While I prefer creams over soaps, I have both and rotate through about 15 including Mitchell's. I have a few brushes and prefer fine badger over boar but have a Vulfix mixed that is one of my two...- CSG

How do folks react to your hat wearing?
I think for some of the negative reactions that people get it's because they don't look comfortable in their hat. In so many self portraits I've seen here, the subject looks uncomfortable. You see it in movies too. Back in the day when fedoras were the norm, men looked *right* in them. These... -

Show us your radios!
Found this 1942 Philco console in Sun Valley last week for $75. It's in remarkable condition and works but I'm going to have the chassis and power cord redone by the guy that did my 1936 Zenith tombstone: The photos don't show it well but the finish is original with a wonderful patina and... -

Show us your radios!
When I first came to Idaho in 1994 we couldn't get cable and satellite TV wasn't yet available. Local TV went off the air very early. That left me with my GE Super Radio and Grundig Yacht Boy 400 short wave. I learned about DXing and got a shortwave book and long antenna. I spent many fun... -
Woman Lives 1930s Lifestyle
Very interesting and not such an easy thing to do if you remain accurate to the era in all things. Personally, I like to be inspired by things from the era (furnishings, books, an old radio streaming old music and shows via a modern internet wi-fi connection) but actually living like it was the...- CSG

What era of dress or style doyou prefer?
I like the look of the 30's and 40's but don't dress that way. Where I live and what I do doesn't require suits or more formal attire. I do have a sort of uniform though in that I pretty much only wear khaki and olive drab dual patch pocket shirts, some more uniform like than others...- CSG
