    Before and After's

    Well, perhaps it's not quite the right time for me to pitch this, as we have no image hosting at present, but here's an idea: How about posting photos (maybe just headshots) of us in "civies" and then in vintage - clothes, hair, make-up? For those who are always "oldish" I suppose we won't...

    PC vs Mac - Apple looks very attractive right now!!

    I don't at all intend on starting a debate. I think it has been hashed over a few times here already, at least indirectly while discussing another topic. And while this may be a topic for another message board, this is the only one I'm really a part of, and I know there are more than a few Mac...

    What $35.00 gets ya these days...

    An antique mall an hour's drive from home was the site of this find. Only flaw I can find is the lack of the "first inside button" at the trouser top. May have been a hook closure. Well, you know what I mean, the part you'd fasten prior to zipping. The outside button does the trick, though...

    The "New/Old" Bands - who do you like?

    From this thread in the Steamer Trunk - My report on the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra (http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?t=6604) For discussion, should you be inclined, what "new/old" bands do you like or have seen and what do you think? The only ones I know for sure that are "still"...

    How about Art's life?

    Hi, everybody. Hey, does any of you know when Art might be back up and running? I know I am premature, probably, with this question as it is barely fall, but I just received my Pbob Monti today and it reminded me of Art (as it will go to him prior to next spring/summer, I am planning)...

    Overcoat????

    Hi, fellas. Ladies. Say, what does one wear as an overcoat and maintain a spiffy appearance? I, of late, realized I don't have anything for temperatures above 40 degrees that goes with a nice hat. I am thinking long-waisted, but what is there? What is period or, at least, period-looking...

    Cab coming to San Diego

    I will be accompanying my wife to San Diego on April 20 and will be there for four days. She'll have some conference things to attend, but I'll be wanting for something to do, no doubt, during those times. R & R is good for a while. Thoughts and tips from anyone, please? We'll be staying...

    Cav 50 - wowsa - and a Knox 20

    Got a couple new hats over the past few days. I think they are just right. The first is the Cavanagh in light tan with dark brown ribbon, and the second a dark brown Knox with "amberish" brown ribbon. Oh, my goodness, how nice is the felt of the Cavanagh. When I had the Stetson 20...

    Stetson 20 for sale - SOLD

    Hi, fellas. Ladies. A few months ago, I purchased a Stetson 20. It's a really lovely dark brown. It's just top notch. This hat is a 7-1/4, and fits like a 7-1/4. Age? I don't know. I am supposing 40's. For those more in the know about dating Stetson's, I'll throw up all the numbers I...

    I'm singing at PBG's wedding!!!

    Okay, well, Dan doesn't know it yet, so don't tell him. It's a surprise and gift for letting me be invloved with the archaeology brushes. Truth be told, I'd love to do this, and I think PrettyBigGuy and PrettyLittleGirl would find the budget just right. At almost 33 years of age, if there's...

    Art continues to please

    Yesterday I received the fruits of my first transaction with Mr. Fawcett. Perhaps many of you had previously seen it on Art's website, but now you can see it on me. A 50's Cavanagh pork pie. Say, those Cavanagh's are nice, aren't they? This is my first go with one. Pretty sure it won't be...
