MEN'S PAJAMAS and DRESSING GOWNS
I ran across a vintage mens long nightshirt the other day. Red and white striped. Large. Brand: Diplomat. Good clean condition. Not sure of actual age. The kind of thing you'd see with just the stocking cap and slippers as accompaniment. Think anyone would want it if I bought it and hocked it...- HarpPlayerGene

Thrifted this today. Seems to be WWll British. The buckle at least - the leather may well be a replacement. Looks too fresh and seems a bit narrow for the fittings. Any info on this from those of you with knowledge in this area?- HarpPlayerGene

No Mail on Saturdays
USPS; "Cash Strapped" indeed. I have 11 packages (Ebay sales) that I'll be taking to post tomorrow. They will all fit on the passenger seat of my truck. The total postage I'm (buyers are) paying is nearly $150.00. Yeah, when I'm "cash strapped" I work less in order to remedy that problem...- HarpPlayerGene
