    FS: Lots of vintage hats, size 7 1/8 - 7 1/4

    Many of these don't fit me as well as they used to and have been taking up space around the house, so I'm offering them here. The tagged sizes fit true to size. Shipping is dependent on location, payment through Paypal. Also, all crown measurements are for open crowns. 1940's Stetson...

    Relining Tuxedo Lapels

    Due to some poor judgement on my part, I took a 30's tuxedo to a dry cleaner's and the lapels were destroyed. I found this website, thanks to a fellow Lounger, however I don't know which material would suit it the best. The original lapels were a very soft satin silk (not grosgrain) and also not...

    Looking for deadstock satin silk

    Hi, Due to some very poor judgement on my part, the silk lapels on a 30's tuxedo of mine were damaged. My only solution is to search for a tailor or clothier who can hopefully re-line the lapels with new silk. Beyond possible complications such as whether this is even possible, I am looking for...

    WTB Old camera

    Does anyone have an old camera that runs on 120 film? I'm thinking like an early 1900's Brownie, in good working condition. It doesn't have to be anything special, just something cheap that works well and can take some nice period-style shots. I have a few old brownies that use 116, but I...

    I recently won in a (non-Ebay) auction, an early 20th century Edison Co. disc phonograph player. The link to the auction is here. Is anyone knowledgeable in these things? What type of needles do I need? How do I work it? And I think that it only takes Edison discs, but what series does it...

    FS: 1920's Borsalino fu Lazzaro, 7 1/8

    For your consideration is a 1920's Borsalino fu Lazzaro, size 7 1/8. It's a milk white felt, with a black ribbon. The sweatband is original. When I purchased it, the felt was extremely dusty, to the point that it coated the fingers with powder. After over an hour of extensive brushing, most...

    Profound Quotes

    I know there's a few threads on movie quotes that are doing well in the movie forum, but I think a thread for general quotations would also be good. One of my favorites: "Every civilization must contend with an unconscious force which can block, betray, or countermand almost any conscious...

    Photo Shop: The Hat Photography Tutorial Thread

    The idea for this thread has been floating around in my head for a while now. Inspired by the photography greats of the Lounge; D'Guy, Lefty, and now Alan, to name only a few; I think this would be a good resource for all of us less handy with a camera. Hopefully, here we could share tips for...

    Seeking advice about a waistcoat and trousers...

    I have recently gotten my hands on some vintage wool... About 3 1/2 yards of it. I have plans to make it into a waistcoat and some trousers, so now comes the time for me to start some serious research. Please bear with me as I stumble through this, as my suiting terminology is rudimentary at...

    This thread will become my depository for items I need to sell off over the next couple of weeks. I can't guarantee how often I'll be posting additions to this page, but it's a few of the items I don't have the budget or room to keep any longer.

    Origami

    I'm an active hat collector, a vintage clothing enthusiast, a hobby musician, and at heart I'm a shutterbug (without a good camera, the knowledge, or the time)... But I also am an amateur origamist. I mainly fold from books, but have also occasionally dabbled in designing original models...
