    Sport Coat Vs. Suit Coat

    How about those orphaned double-breasted jackets? I have one in a medium-dark gray and one navy (no stripes). I've worn the navy one with gray trous and it seems to work fine but what to wear with the dark gray?

    Show Us Your Purchases!

    Yes, it was a thrift shop find. I was absolutely stunned when I saw it. BTW, the color in the photos looks a little washed out - it's actually a bit darker with a touch of raspberryness. Lolly - I can visualize you boarding a vintage train with that hatbox on your arm...

    The Resistol Roundup

    I think I posted a photo of this Resistol when I first got it a couple of years ago, but I thought some might be interested (or horrified) to see how it has evolved. As found at a flea market for ten bucks: The shape of the crown just didn't look right on me so I gave it a new bash...

    Show Us Your Purchases!

    I thought this would be of more interest here than in one of the mens' threads. As some of you may know, one of the things I collect (and use) is vintage luggage and this bright red, real alligator hatbox is one of the coolest pieces I've found in a long time. It's in pristine condition - no...

    Show us your Thrift and/or yard sale finds

    I found this N.O.S. cassette adaptor for 8-track players at the Salvation Army store yesterday for two bucks. I don't have an 8-track player and don't really have a use for it, but it was too cool to pass up.

    Quadruple Pleated Back 1930s Sportcoat

    Marc - how can you bail when you've racked up 18,000+ posts? At least stick it out until you hit an even 20K.

    Show us your SHOES !!!

    I found these Bostonians in the thrift shop yesterday for $4.99. Made in Italy and in hardly worn condition - all they needed was a good polishing. I like the combination of smooth and pebble grain leather - almost like black-on-black spectators. The pebbble grain leather is very soft and...

    My New Refrigerator

    Beautiful 'fridge at a great price! I'd love to find one like that to go with our '47 Clare Jewel stove.

    Show Us Your Table Lighters

    I don't really think of myself as a collector of lighters - just someone who likes vintage lighters and puts them to use. I also carry my cigs in a cigarette case and smoke 'em with a cigarette holder. And of course I've managed to accumulate a number of each. Umm...maybe because I like using...

    Vintage Car Thread - Discussion and Parts Requests

    In case someone might be interested, there's a Model T Touring for sale on Craig's List for what seems like a reasonable price. I haven't seen it and don't know anything about it - just wanted to pass it along. Model T Ford - $3500 (royston) Date: 2012-01-30, 4:41PM PST Reply to...

    Misc. stoneware and pottery

    Great collection of stoneware, carouselvic! I have a collection of pre-war German stoneware mugs and pitchers - one of these days I'll get around to photographing them and posting them.

    Our New Vintage Stove

    Thanks for the all the compliments on our stove! Here's a photo of it's location in our new house. Unfortunately, there's no kitchen wrapped around it yet. We moved it directly into the new construction because it's really heavy and (a) if we put it in storage, we'd just have to move it...

    1947 Bentley Mark VI to be auctioned--What a work of art!

    If it were mine it would be my year-round daily driver.

    Our New Vintage Stove

    The previous owners loved it and took really good care of it. The inside of the oven and warming drawers are grey speckled enamel and are clean as a whistle. The only cosmetic flaws are a couple of little chips in the enamel near one of the back burners. Oh - and the clock, timer, and back light...

    1927 Newspaper Item re Bogart-Mencken Divorce

    I was going through some old Pittsburgh newspaper archives looking for information about a gas explosion disaster and noticed this small item on one of the pages from November 14th, 1927. I thought it was pretty amusing, considering where Bogey's career went...

    They're warming drawers (which is something I wish I had on a snowy day like today... ;>)

    Our New Vintage Stove

    We really wanted a vintage stove for the house we're in the midst of building but didn't hold much hope - such things aren't often seen here on the Island and we couldn't afford the prices the vintage stove dealers were asking. But we lucked out when one turned up on Craig's List. And the best...

    Show off your Ebay finds and purchases

    Nifty little record player, Giftmacher! I checked out aukro.cz - looks like a good auction to watch. I don't speak Czech, but I won't let that get in the way of hunting for cool vintage and antique buys (I did manage to blunder my way through registering, though). Are payments usually made via...
