1920s Tweed Shooting Day
Relaxing in front of the roaring fire. Instructions on shooting. On the range. I managed to hit 5 out of 25 clay pigeons. I considered this a triumph. ;)- dhermann1

1920s Tweed Shooting Day
Here are a few images: On Saturday we had a hike through the reservation. Chilly but spectacular. At the summit (yours truly at the far left). Old man Dan hobbles along. In the evening we dressed for dinner. And what a banquet it was.- dhermann1

1920s Tweed Shooting Day
A bunch of us here in New York did the same last weekend. I'll try to share some pics. We stayed at a 1933 lodge in the Blue Mountain Reservation, in Westchester County. Quite a time it was, including a black tie banquet on Saturday night. But I must say, it was bloody freezing...- dhermann1

Christmas Vintage. Tablecloths.
I love those! Might have to get one, now that you've put the bee in my bonnet. You're a bad man, Scot. ;)- dhermann1

Holy grail? 1929 suit
It was a stout fellow who owned it, that's for sure! Looks to me like something you'd wear in a rural setting, stalking the wild asparagus or whatever.- dhermann1

"The Vanishing El" (1950)
Oh, my, what a wonderful little film. And so close to home for me, in more ways than one. I was . . . 3 years old when it was made, and living on Riverside Drive, in Manhattan. And now I live right across the street from Bronx Park. The Els are gone, but there are still many, many miles of...- dhermann1

Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage
I was wandering around aimlessly on my lunch hour today in Marshall's (discount dept store for those who don't have them nearby), with by beat up Knox, vintage tie and trench coat, and one of the female employees said I had a detective vibe going on. I did not take it as an insult, and I don't...- dhermann1

The Hills are Alive with the sound of??????
I couldn't bring myself to watch it, having seen the film enough times, and a very creditable professional production back in the 70s. Not one of my fave R & H shows by any means. But it sure was fun reading the various and sundry snarky comments on Facebook! I suppose I'll have to catch a...- dhermann1

Fedora Lounge Membership Surpasses 30,000
You don't suppose Otis was here under another name at one time, and was banned? Sounds like that kind of meat head. Anyhoo, I'm impressed. I don't post as often as I used to, (something about a Face thing, or whatever) but I can't see ever saying aloha to this gang. Nope.- dhermann1

Show us your radios!
Bomber General! Nice job! Curious about the dial glass. Is that hard to come by? I have had a Philco 40-180 that I managed to squish the glass of. I'd love to get it restored. -

1910s-1920s MW Cowboy hat- size 7
Aha. So not necessarily a frock coat, but an "in town" style suit. Would his outfit in this picture have been considered particularly western at that time?- dhermann1

True Classic Borsalino Fedora?
I stopped at the Bergdorff Goodmans Mens Shop the other evening to pick up a copy of the new book "I Am Dandy", by friend Rose Callahan, which had gotten its publication party at the store. I was wearing my favorite vintage Borsalino. While I looked around I saw a small display of Borsalino... -
1910s-1920s MW Cowboy hat- size 7
Very nice. Amazingly well preserved. When they call it western, what do they really mean? I don't think people in 1910 had invented that hokey (but fun!) pseudo cowboy style that became popular in the 20s through the 40s (and after). Would this have been worn by a man sporting a frock coat and...- dhermann1

Great Gatsby inspired suit
Just looked at their website. Wouldn't touch it. Where is the bride getting her dress? And the bridesmaids? Hopefully, they will get beyond the pseudo flapper shimmy fringes and find some of the more elegant 20s dresses available these days. -

1894 Dated 3 piece suit
More or less, yes. Normally a morning suit would have striped trousers. I doubt it's from 1894. The seller has just seen the patent date on a snap and jumped to the conclusion that the suit is that old. It could be from any time up to 40 years after that. Still makes it a very old suit. If...- dhermann1
