    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Dang Jimmy! That is one nice looking lid. There is just something about a green fedora that sets thing off just right. Especially during the Holiday Season. Cheers! Dan

    Boxing films

    The Kid from Brooklyn (1946) Danny Kaye & Eve Arden (from "Our Ms. Brooks" fame) The Milky Way (1936) with Harold Lloyd. Both great films in a funny way. Cheers! Dan

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Last night it was The Benny Goodman Story (1956). Well done by Steve Allen. The film was not as well polished as The Glen Miller Story, but it was represented quite well. With appearances of well known musicians like Gene Krupa, Harry James, Ben Pollack & Lionel Hampton it lends an appearance of...

    Pics MTM Action Back Jacket: please give your opinion

    You basically want to pour a jug of cider without altering the sides or collar of ones coat, and not have your sleeves ride up. Cheers! Dan

    Pics MTM Action Back Jacket: please give your opinion

    Sorry, don't mean to hijack this thread, but what Cagney film is this referencing? By the way, thanks for these photos. I need to print them out to take with me to the tailors. Easier to show them a picture of what I'm looking for than to describe it. Cheers! Dan

    My One and Only.

    I've only heard about this one on Radio Classics on XM164, I haven't seen or heard it advertised anywhere else. http://www.myoneandonly.com/#/home/ Have any of you heard about this one, and has anyone seen it yet. Thoughts? Cheers! Dan

    World War I peacoats, GOODBYE

    My Dad had the WW1 peacoat back when he was a teen back in the 40's. His best friend gave it to him when he out grew it. Unfortunately my Grandfather got rid of it while my Dad was in the Army before they moved out to California. It was the one thing given away like that, that my Dad was truely...

    The Green Machine

    I recall some time back that Douglas had posted a beautiful bottle green Borsalino in another thread. It wasn't in the best of shape & he was toying around with the idea of getting it refurbished but decided to keep it all original. Do you still have that photo or hat available Douglas? That...

    When Fedoras ruled

    Sure looks cold at that ball game as well, judging by the bundled up look of most of the folks there. Cheers! Dan

    Need advice on overall appearance in suit

    One of the best resources I've come across for learning to combine color & pattern correctly is Alan Flusser's "Dressing The Man". It is wort the investment. It can be had at your local Borders book store or even Amazon for that matter. Cheers! Dan

    Need advice on overall appearance in suit

    If it was a navy blue suit or even a royal blue I would say that the shoes go with it perfectly, but with charcoal grey the black shoes are the best choice. If you're going for a uniform monochrome look the blue toe goes but I might suggest something with a little more color or flair to make the...

    Matching tie & pocket square

    Even in Alan Flusser's book 'Dressing the Man' this is a taboo thing. Makes one look like a rank beginner. You best bet is to pull color elements from the shirt, jacket or tie to properly harmonize the out fit. The key is to not look like you tried but that it all works and there is no one point...

    Here is my 1940s Barbershop:

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Merle Oberon... I also caught The Lion Has Wings (1939) with her and Ralph Richardson last night. Done more documentary/propaganda film like it gave a good view & cross section of life in Great Britain in the late 1930's. Fairly well done. Finally there was Wuthering Heights (1939) with again...

    Show off the sports coats.

    Just won this double breasted pin stripe number. It should go very well with either grey flannel trouser or some light weight off white Dockers & spectator shoes. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120461506713&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_4297wt_1167 I was inspired last...

    Sword and Sorcery Movies from the 80's

    One of my favorites was Dragonslayer(1981). It was some of the best FX work for the time & one of the baddest looking dragons to boot. Now that was sword & sorcery. Cheers! Dan

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    We watched 'The Shadow of the Thin Man' on Saturday & then on Sunday we partook of my all time favorite warm & fuzzy feel good film 'The Holiday'(2006). I think it's the only film I actually like Jack Black's acting in. I'm utterly amazed that they built that cottage from scratch & made it look...
