    USN Deck Jackets period / repop

    Breezer, none taken. If I had the coin in pocket right now, yes, I would be pulling the trigger. But, I am also one to do months of research before I purchase something like this on the old inter-web. Thanks too for showing the End clothing version, but that there is way our of my price range...

    favorite director of all time?

    I suppose that if we're talking about modern directors there is something that I really enjoy about Guillermo del Toro & his works. Especially Pans Labyrinth. Pretty horrific in the real world with some serious violence. Then the girl escapes to a fantasy world, that may seem out of a nightmare...

    USN Deck Jackets period / repop

    That was one of my concerns as well. While the brown faux fur looks really good, I would wager that it sheds. Not so much that it goes "bald" in a short amount of time, but all the loose stuff that wasn't cleaned out during the manufacturing process may slip. I recall some similar fabric that my...

    The one picture of the Lobby hallway has that feeling from The Shining. You're right, spooky. Just in time for Halloween. Beautiful theater though. Cheers! Dan

    USN Deck Jackets period / repop

    I did state in post #50 that the linings were grey & brown.:) That aside, I thank you for the info on the Houston N1. Interesting indeed. It looks much like the brown lined jacket I posted, right down to the USN stencil. I had been trying to find out who put that one out.:eusa_clap The other...

    favorite director of all time?

    Now when it comes to musicals, Mark Sandrich had it nailed. Song, dance, comedy, & a misunderstanding all tied together in an entertaining package. Cheers! Dan

    favorite director of all time?

    And you are entitled to that view. I might add, that unlike todays films, gunshots and injuries seldom bled or showed up back then. So the lack of injuries I think were an industries way of possibly protecting the viewer from too much human horror. How many western have we seen that didn't have...

    An Indy Jacket question

    I'd have to say that my Wested Ind goatskin has been iron tough. It has weathered the weather quite well, the stitching is lust as good as the day I received it and it is still going strong 10 years later. I couldn't have asked for a better jacket. Now that I have lost some weight the fit is a...

    USN Deck Jackets period / repop

    For comparison. Both are sold through Global Rakutin, so the shopping is easy. Sizing is equal, So I imagine that they are manufactured by the same plant, just branded differently through two different company names on this market place. Probably the only vast difference, other than the liner...

    USN Deck Jackets period / repop

    It's funny. I have found a couple of Japanese reproductions of the N1. One has the brown faux fur lining and the other, above, with the grey. Close in price, being about $2 and change of each other. I'm only slightly swaying towards the one with the grey liner because it has an inside pocket. I...

    Tiki Culture

    It's funny. My parents had a collection of Tiki mugs. About 10 if I recall correctly. All with the simple stamp of "Japan" on the bottom. I think that it was my Dad that had collected them in the 50's & 60's. When they had passed, My sister & I each kept 1 and sold off the rest. Now I kick...

    favorite director of all time?

    Yeah I would have to agree with Howard Hawks, with John Ford right on his heels. Of course you can't forget these in that Howard Hawks list. Rio Bravo El Dorado Rio Lobo Hatari! The Thing from Another World Third on my list would be William Wyler. While his early pre WWII work seemed a bit...
