Great way to start 2014! The wife and I got up early this morning and went rabbit hunting with a great group of gentlemen. We were hunting with a pack of beagles. It was like dove hunting. Surrounded a large section of cedars and scrub brush which they had brush hogged paths through. The...
Thought you ladies might be interested to see this. Some particularly good shots of Joan Crawford, Rita Hayworth, Sophia Lauren, Jayne Mansfield, and many others.
I swear #53 looks like Dr. Joyce Brothers...
I was checking some information on the SI website and happened to see the cover from this 1958 issue on the page. It is worth a look. The article is about John Olin, inventor of the Winchester Super-X shotgun shell and his passion for bird hunting and conservation. The issue also has great...

Interesting that Debbie Reynolds has the 7 year itch dress! will be an interesting auction when it comes up later this year.
This morning Charles Osgood was absolutely impeccable in his attire. He wore a single breasted, peak lapel, 3 piece suit (the vest with lapels) in what looks to be a dark olive or brown tweed, a white shirt with pin stripes, a tastefully striped bow tie and a contrasting pocket square. It is a...

I am curious if any of my fellow Loungers are members of a regular poker group or card club? I am not talking about the casino card rooms but a game played regularly in someones home between a group of friends.
It has been several years since I was a member of such here in the states, while...
I have certain movies on disc which I tend to revisit when I need to recharge mentally. I am curious if any of my fellow Loungers have similar lists.
My personal list includes:
Seabiscuit
Road to Perdition
The Philadelphia Story
The Thin Man movies
The Jeeves and Wooster series...
I was watching a couple of the Thin Man movies the last couple of nights and I always marvel at the smooth interchange between Myrna Loy and William Powell. The dialogue is amazing but so is the delivery. It got me to thinking are there any couples who could do justice to the dialogue today...
All,
I recently purchased a very nice copy of Apparel Arts 5th Anniversary Issue, dated 1936. It contains 348 pages of ads, fascinating articles and some double fold out maps. I am going to attempt to photograph or scan as much of it as possible for inclusion here. I do not currently have...
Pictures of my new Magnoli Gittes Linen suit. Wow, I am very impressed with the workmanship and quality of this suit. Indy was a pleasure to work with and he was always very helpful and prompt. I am very pleased with this suit as it is my first time purchasing over the internet. I had the...
I need some information on suitable attire for attending an evening performance of "Romeo and Juliet" at the Met in NYC next week. We have very good seats in the Center Parterre and I want to make sure I am properly dressed. It is not an opening night performance so I believe the dinner jacket...

Jim McKay, one of the greatest of the television sportscasters passed away on Saturday. When I was a kid in the 60's and 70's saturday afternoons were always spent watching ABC's Wide World of Sports and Jim McKay. He was the classiest and best in the business. He could make curling or...
I was in Houston last week and stopped at the west I-10 Goodwill Slect store. I was fortunate to find a Evan Picone double breasted navy blazer, 44L which fits like it was made for me, less than $20 in perfect condition.
I also found this suit. It is blue sharkskin, fully lined with high...
This afternoon driving to the Bush airport in Houston I pass a shell station a mile or so from the rental car return and I look to my right and what do I see but one of the most beautiful pieces of machinery ever built sitting in the parking lot of a shell station. I just had to whip a u-turn...
