    Pre War AAF Tropical dress uniform, Palm Beach fabric

    If this in fact white or ivory it would have been for formal occasions, such as a black tie affair. Downside is it is lacking all insignia. Prior to WWII The Air Corps was a branch of the Army like the Signal or Chemical corps. Therefore it has Army dress buttons but could be from any branch or...

    Opinions: Legendary Brand Buco J-24 D-Pocket H.H.

    Yes, I contacted the seller, he stated he decided to keep it. I think he had cold feet seeing minimal bidding and no reserve. I believe it would bring around 375-425 in the end. It was a reasonable size for a man and they don't come up for sale often. What do think strokes?

    15 of the Most Memorable Final Lines in Film

    A River Runs Through It Like many fly fishermen in western Montana where the summer days are almost Arctic in length, I often do not start fishing until the cool of the evening. Then in the Arctic half-light of the canyon, all existence fades to a being with my soul and memories and the sounds...

    Show us your Switchblades

    I recall, my grandfather had a switchblade in his tackle box. He would pull it out to dress the knot or cut his fishing line. To a kid that was pretty cool. He was the type who favored the dramatic. In the bottom of the tackle box was a 12 inch gaff w/o a handle. That was for a huge pike that...

    What do they want? What did they want in the Golden era?

    Many or all of us, are damged in one way or another. If couples would take it slow and think and talk above the waistline, they may really learn about what is below the surface. Problem for most is, they really don't start to talk until the problems start. Then couples say, "I had no idea you...

    Raccoon/Fox Tails on Radio Aerial - Why?

    I see a raccoon tail or two at the street rod meets. I think they are just trying to restore the original nostalgia.

    What do they want? What did they want in the Golden era?

    This is a classic example of why I don't reply. You folks should re-read the original question. Yes marrige can be disfunctional or great. The question was (paraphrased) what did the previous generation want and has that changed? A married friend worked at a bank when I was single. She said...

    Advice on a Zenith 18K gold cushion faced watch (circa 1919).

    My two cents. A general cleaning and timing on a average (big range) should be 40-100 dollars US. As for the market value, most people today want a watch that is 35 mm. or larger in diameter measured w/o the winding crown. To the untrained eye, watches from 1920-1950 may appear to be made for...

    "Unhappy Hipsters" Blog

    This is a repeating theme. Yes, rejecting previous values is not bad. Yet we should retain the values-positive that benefit, the people, public and nation. Yet think looking to the future and family and its individual components.

    Opinions: Legendary Brand Buco J-24 D-Pocket H.H.

    Perhaps that explains the price. I was thinking, Schott had no Buco D-pocket offered. Why didn't they think of this first?

    Opinions: Legendary Brand Buco J-24 D-Pocket H.H.

    One quick observation, the zipper pull was stamped "Schott NY". It was clear Lengendary USA wasn't making any bones about who was manufacturing the jacket for them. It made me wonder why, Schott wasn't marketing their own form of the Buco D-pocket as well?
