Great scans.
I especially like the color chart. I think it answers questions that people have asked before.
Thanks loads.

Sincerely,

Beautiful photos! I wish there was a place that still sold clocked socks like the ones you see here and in old Esky issues.

Interesting that they recommend green hats for gray suits . . .

It absolutely is!
I am a big fan of reference threads like this one.

Scott,
2 summers ago I was able to purchase almost identical striped trousers, same color and style from Hart Schaffner & Marx. Very nice perfect for summer and look great with a linen sport coat or NB blazer. Only issue is they are somewhat see through so have to be careful what you wear under them.
I dont see them listed on their site currently but they may still have some, purchased mine at Dillards in Nashville, TN.
