    When does the "Golden Era" start and end for you?

    November 1918 until January 1961. The 50's are too fascinating to disregard.

    How To Build A Newsroom Time Machine

    I'm a little surprised by this, I'm back in school to get a degree in Commercial Photography at a technical/community college. Our art department must be better than most, because not only do we have a huge darkroom (Color and B&W!) I walked by a pair of printing presses the other day being...

    I don't own a...

    Only in this forum could I be considered "Modern":confused: I have a freeby I-pod that I never use, I don't own a flat TV, I really don't watch TV. I hate having a cell phone, but I'm self employed and have to be accessible. I like film, but DSLR's are a necessity as a Photog. I have to use...

    Vintage televisions, anyone? Post pics here!

    Well, I'm beating my head against a wall now. I donated off my Grandmother's ca 1985 Zenith stereo console last fall, granted the picture was starting to go but it did still work. I watched many a re-run of Dragnet and Adam 12 on that TV. I do have my grandparents B&W portable set from the...

    Show us your Vintage Office Supplies.

    An Interesting thread, I'll be adding too it soon, I promise. It appears I'm not alone in my fondness for this stuff. As a note, many of the vintage desk and drafting lamps will be marked "Fostoria" for the small city not too far from me where they were made. The plant sadly closed about two...

    Do Ladies notice a Man's shoes?

    Off topic, but I can't resist. Two of my Red Tractors. Their shoe's are vintage Goodyear's:D I'm ashamed to say I wear a pair of 1960's styled Adidas athletic shoes far too often. The dammed things are just too comfortable.

    Vintage Travel Trailers

    I have a semi-vintage trailer, a 1968 Fan "Luxury Liner" but it's built to more of a 50's design philosophy. Keep the roof well sealed.

    Forbidden items in my home...

    Carbon fiber bicycles and anything made by Apple computer in the last 25 years. Save for the cheap I-pod I was given and don't use.

    Sears might be going belly up

    Sad, and the morons cheer as vestiges of our culture fall before them. (My apologies if "Morons" seems a bit harsh, but it was the most polite word I could think of.)

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    New member checking in. I've been a history nut my entire life, have always felt I had been born about 60 years too late. My Parents home, growing up, save for the console TV in the living room (Five stations!) was very little changed since my Great Grandfather had last remodeled it in the...

    New member checking in. I'm far from total immersion, I suppose I have a background that would lend itself to it though. My Parents home, growing up, save for the console TV in the living room (Five stations!) was very little changed since my Great Grandfather had last remodeled it in the...
