That was actually a personal portrait and used as my business card.
When I was first working in photography, so many of the shots I had planned were based on the film noir look. Unfortunately I put many of those plans aside due to time and resources....
Ironically I just recently started...
I've always said, that anyone can simply buy an outfit and "dress up".... But what makes so many of our folks in Lounge stand out is that "they" make the outfit work. Not the other way around!
Whether it's their appearance or personal character... it's person that makes the package complete...
A day late and a dollar...well I have the dollar! I was just too late to notice it!!
Hey metro!
Don't ever take it personal my friend. Life is too short to give yourself an ulcer. Besides, for many of us, we don't always get to check every thread. Then there's the money crunch everyone is...
I can also understand and agree with the replica suggestion. For some events and even historical conventions, real firearms are a no-go and as a result we can only have the replicas. It's also not bad to have a replica for a static display or in case the public try to walk off with it.
Now in...
I suppose we can't change people, so we just need to make ourselves happy. I guess that's what makes a site like this such a relief. Especially when you find like-minded folks to get along with.
MK rocks to have put such a site together
thank you so much for posting these. For us folks trying to "do it right", this is an excellent source to start with.
I wonder when vests started falling out favor....probably the war, with all the shortages
Mr. Polito seems to be a Coen Brothers regular. Though I don't believe he was in Oh Brother Where Art Thou?? The man is an excellent EXCELLENT character actor!!!
Sorry buddy, Pic have to wait til Sunday when my missus gets back with the camera...
I believe we're talking about a gray whippet, a tan Marathon, a tan $10.00 Mr. Green deluxe (Who the hell knows what that's supposed to means[huh]) which was almost worth buying just because of the strange...
Though not black, I have a dark brown Dobbs 5th avenue he can have for a song. Tag say's she's a 7 1/4 long oval... PM me if your interested.
Just be sure to remind him this hobby is highly addictive!!!
So this guy says, "Yeah I might have a hat or two you might like..."
"Sure..." says I. Thinking that if I'm lucky, I might actually fine A good lid.....
So I stop at his mansion.... (BTW: Very sharp house my friend!) which is decorated with various nostalgic prints, wooden hat blocks and...
I just picked up a Stevens Pacesetter Royalist. The stamp says Gibbs Clothing Co.
It's a centerdent with a bout a 2 1.4 inch bound brim. The feather and the bow are also on the back???
Have to wait download pics...
Any idea as to the year?
Is Stevens a known brand?
I agree!
That was my thought exactly! I have a couple originals that I have been planning to convert using a digital point and shoot.... The problem is, I'm just spoiled with my digital SLRs... But idea is to have the vintage look without bringing out my full blown Nikon during an event...
I remember staying out all night, five out of seven days...getting in at 3 or 4am....grabbing some sleep then running PT in the morning....
Now as a second shifter I can easily sleep until 10 or 11 without even thinking about it.
Hope everything is alright on your part of the world. Be...
