    Oradour-sur-Glane - A German destroyed town preserved as a monument

    A somber video but one that is important, as it's one of only a handful of places left in the world that stands as a reminder of the unbridled rage carried out under Hitler's orders. We all know that Jews were singled out by Hitler, but sometimes it's easy to forget that there are other equally...

    Film noir script ideas

    I have a vintage 30's movie camera (don't ask) and am thinking of buying some rolls of 35mm and shooting a black and white film. I'm looking for ideas to use while writing a script. What would you like to see in a movie in the film noir genre, that you either haven't seen covered, or you...

    Scrapbook from the pilot of the first Air Force One

    I was lucky to come by this 5 yrs ago, and have photographed some of the images. Some of which are general aviation themed, or press clippings, others carry the pilot's notes. There are a few previously classified X planes. Enjoy. And of course, the interior...

    Vintage telephones and VoIP

    I looked up an old page online and read something that might be of use to Loungers. Vonage (I'm not connected with them in any way) tech support have the ability to crank up the ringer voltage on their box to a full 90v. This means anyone with a bakelite phone with the bell style ringer, can...

    WWII Unissued unit, rank and inisgnia patches

    Original WWII mint unissued unit/rank/insignia patches. Have ONE of every patch issued. I kept them after I shuttered my doors years ago, and can't justify holding on to stuff and paying storage on things I'll never use :/ $14 each inc postage anywhere in the US, just PM me to tell me which...

    1940's shearling jackets

    Dusted off my vintage 40's men's sheepskin jacket this morning. I had it treated about a year and a half ago, and haven't worn it since last winter. Sort of Timberline style, but much earlier vintage. Looks and feels like it could be new, no stiffening of the skin or loss of fur, but dated...

    Blue suit, what color Fedora?

    Should I go for brown, tan, or black? I know it's not exactly hat related, but I suppose I should get shoes to match?

    I Lost The Basket For My Percolator Coffee Maker -

    Another thread got me thinking about my percolator. I lost the basket during the move :/ I do have the tube though. Anyone know of a generic replacement basket? I know they're "out of style" because people say the coffee is boiled, but I just think it tastes better than a drip maker...

    Free Zenith console radio for restoration

    I simply don't have the room. If anyone wants it, I have a 10-S-567 with cabinet (condition 8/10), gold anodized chassis and "pilot wheel" tuning, and 12" speaker with transformer. The chassis is out of the cabinet to restore, but I never got around to it, and it needs a new home. All...
