    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I've been wearing this today for those allowed out of the house occasions with us all in lockdown while it's still cold enough here I can get away with it.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Thank you. I've no idea as to the maker as there's no label other than the one stating it's horsehide. Whoever the maker was it's top quality and made to last as it's now in it's 70's and looks to have many years left. More than I have :rolleyes:

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Thanks. I'd love to help but I have spent many years looking for a vintage shearling lined horsehide jacket in this style that was in wearable condition and in my size. It's a matter of frequently scouring the eBay UK and US listings for as long as it takes. I'm based in the UK and luckily this...

    Lone Wolf boots. Fit true to size?

    No worries Colin. Sorry if my input being contrary to the general consensus of opinion on the fit of these boots confuses matters. I can only speak as I find. I imagine that someone with a lower, flatter foot profile may well find them loose as the resulting more relaxed fit across the instep...

    Lone Wolf boots. Fit true to size?

    In my experience they fit true to size. I have 2 pairs, all black and 2 tone. I wear a size 8 UK which is equivalent (for me) to 8-1/2 US. The fit is good. Breathing room without being too loose so I get no slippage. My toes do not 'feel' the end of the toe box so they don't cause any...

    Vintage Phones

    Thanks Lizzie. A great post and very enlightening. I see what you mean re. the similarities between the 162/232 and F1 handsets although they are clearly not identical. 162/232 telephones had no integral bells either. A separate bell set with a moulded cover was issued. This could be fitted to...

    Vintage Phones

    I'm not familiar with Bell's E1. I do know that the 200 series phone I posted above was first introduced by the BPO (British Post Office) in 1929 as the model 162 replacing for the No.150 (Candlestick) model. The 162 was the same in appearance as the 232 only varying externally in as much as in...

    Vintage Phones

    Old telephones were built to last. Those issued by the GPO pre 1960 are my thing. My red WE 302 is 1 of 2 deviations from the home grown GPO models I own. Here's one of my red 1950's model 232's

    Vintage Phones

    Just thought I'd show my 50's red WE 302 (known as the Lucy phone) as I had it out of the cabinet to fit a tidier handset chord and an original dial label in place of the copy it came with.
