Shameless plug - 1920s event/OLYMPIA fundraiser in Philadelphia
Also posted in the event section, but those threads are usually a victim of forgetting to look in the event section, to which people inevitably respond "I wish I had seen this earlier"...- Picard1138

Omega Speedmaster Watches
Gents, As my wedding approaches quicker than a speeding locomotive, I have decided to treat myself to an Omega Speedmaster watch. This decision comes from my fascination with early NASA and the Apollo programs (and the class and coolness that came with all of that), where after rigorous...- Picard1138

Being called by your first name at work
I have a question to pose to the Lounge: do you like being on a first name basis at work? This especially applies to managers or supervisors in an office setting. I work for my family business in a formal office, and I always found it odd that my father goes by his first name, even with...- Picard1138

1920s Tweed Shooting Day
A few members of the Philadelphia Vintage Society partook in sporting clays this Sunday in their tweed attire. Only two of us could make it this time, but hopefully this will grow as we make it a more regular PVS event. When the numbers grow we will be able to do a full shoot, with food and...- Picard1138

Joseph Bank double-breasted camel hair top coat
Anyone seen this? http://www.josbank.com/menswear/shop/Product_11001_10050_101696 I checked one out in the store, and apart from not having a belt it's almost exactly the same as one from the 30s I once saw. What does everyone else think? -Max- Picard1138

New Stetson label - to remove or not remove?
I just recently purchased a new Stetson Chatham, which I like very much. What I don't like, however, is the little "STETSON" label they put at the edge of the bowtie on the ribbon. Has anyone taken these off? Is it wrong for me to take it off? Here are some pictures of the hat...- Picard1138
