    Antique 1880s Mens Natural Silk/Linen Sack Suit

    I recently acquired a few nice turn-of-the-century men's garments (give/take 20yrs) and hope to list them on eBay this coming week. This is my most exciting find: http://www.ebay.com/itm/282400915446?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

    Footlocker of THE Julian A. Cook??

    I picked this up from a thrift store just because I thought my son would like to store his stuff in it. After I got it home, I decided to research the name on the trunk... and of course came up with the man portrayed by Robert Redford in "A Bridge Too Far". On the front it states he is a Lt. but...

    Food of the Fifties

    I just came across this website and thought I'd share. Prolific 1950s cookbook author Ruth Chier Rosen sells new-old-stock copies of her books that have been in storage for decades. Some of the titles: "Have Cookbook Will Marry" circa 1957 "Pardon My Foie Gras" circa 1956 "A Guide to Pink...

    Can you help decipher this name?

    I posted more photos of this WW2 US Navy bridge coat under the "Show Us Your Militaria" thread. Can I get suggestions re: the serviceman's name on this label? Thanks!

    X Company on CBC

    Here in Detroit, being so close to the border, we have access to Canadian television. I watched the premiere of "X Company" and quite liked it. Was anyone else able to catch it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFnjGO-hhG4

    Abercrombie & Fitch chamois leather sporting trousers... teens/20s?

    I'm thinking these are pretty old but would love some opinions, please. If you look very closely, the font on the label is more curlicue than a similar label used in the 50s. The trousers are chamois leather, not fabric. The buttons are silk-covered and on the back is printed S. & U. KOBENHAVN...

    Instruction sheet: How to organize a footlocker

    This was taped on the inside lid of an old US army footlocker at a local thrift store. No, I didn't buy the footlocker because the outside had been painted bright green (the inside was still original), the price was $25, and it was missing the tray. I love II, 2.: "One picture in center of...

    Cream twill belted suit, age?

    This is an odd one... I've been googling "B. Teller Vienna" and I'm not coming up with much (helpful) info. This suit is made from a cream twill or duck. It looks like a 30s/40s style but I'm thinking it was more likely made in the 60s or possibly 70s due to the labeling and trouser leg style...

    Have you found Hidden Treasure?

    I can't be the only one! What have you purchased that came with a hidden treasure? I've found old coins deep in pockets and gorgeous vintage brooches pinned on lapels of coats but I think one of my most exciting surprises was a WW2 Wrigley's Gum poster by collected poster artist Otis Shepard...
